You step out of the van into humid air that smells faintly of salt and wild ginger. A chorus of cicadas rises from the roadside hedge, and beyond the palms the hills roll like folded green paper. Within five hours this single loop from Ocho Rios threads together the island’s fastest thrills and its quietest pools: a high-canopy zipline, an ATV safari across rutted farmland, a beach horseback ride with a swim, cliff jumps into Blue Hole’s jade pools, and the communal scramble up the terraced Dunn’s River Falls.
