More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step onto a wooden platform above emerald treetops, the roar of Dunn’s River rattling the air beneath you. The zipline towers here hurl you across a canyoned glide—wind and spray in tandem—then deposits you at the limestone terraces that make up Jamaica’s most famous waterfalls. After a safety briefing you’ll clip into a full‑body harness, cross cables that dart above the falls, and then ready yourself for a guided climb up the tiers where water pushes against your calves and the current tests your balance.
