This is the island's number one attraction. Most say you have not been to Jamaica if you have not climbed Dunns River Falls.

The falls cascade right into the sea where you start your climb with the help of an experienced guide. There are stops for swimming in rock pools, or a natural slide or be massaged under the cascading falls. It is so invigorating!
