A warm wind carries the scent of wet earth and coffee as side-by-side ATVs rumble away from Montego Bay toward Roaring River. Riders leave the coastal bustle for a sequence of farms, hillside tracks and a compact village of about 500 people, where the pace changes and the countryside starts to speak. The machines climb through dirt roads, skirt shaded groves and pause at a limestone-fed pool where the water offers an immediate, cool welcome.
