About this experience
The breathtaking Dunn's River Falls is one of the Jamaica's most popular attractions. A gem of the Caribbean! This unique waterfall flows directly into the warm Caribbean Sea. You can enjoy the long stretch of white sand beach to bask and sunbathe. The shallow water allows you to walk out into the ocean for a quick frolic. You can play on the sand and enjoy the warm Caribbean sunshine,
This magnificent waterfall allows you the pleasure to walk up the tiered cascades and enjoy the miniature falls along the way from the base of the falls to the very top. There are many areas where you can swim around or just sit and enjoy an invigorating back massage from the jets of water off the rocks. Enjoy the majestic trees of the rain forest once you make it to the top.
The Falls also has a park with a splash pool and waterslides for the young at heart. On completion of your Dunn's River Park and Beach activity, experience the art of shopping at any of the local stores in Ocho Rios.
