In Montego Bay, visit Rose Hall plantation, which is said to be haunted by Annie Palmer, who murdered three husbands before meeting a gory death at the hand of her slave lover. In Ocho Rios, go swimming with the dolphins at Dolphin Cove and Climb up the limestone rocks of Dunn's River Falls.

Travel During Non-Peak Season


It's always a good time to visit Jamaica with Beach weather all year round.  You can find great travel deals during the non-peak season. Jamaica’s low season runs from June through December and overlaps with hurricane season, which runs from June to November. Sandwiched between rainy season and the winter crowds, December is a sweet spot where both weather and affordability collide. However, don’t write off travel during hurricane season, which spans half the year. You can save significantly during this period, and there are ways to troubleshoot the small risk that weather may pose to vacation plans.
