Ocho Rios, Jamaica

The Port of Galveston, Texas welcomes many cruise ships throughout the year at Galveston’s cruise terminals offering best itineraries to the port of Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Ocho Rios, or “Ochee,” as the locals call it–is one of Jamaica’s prime tourist destinations. There is plenty to see and do in between bathing and sun-worshipping on the magnificent beaches, from climbing up waterfalls to horseback riding through sugar cane plantations, or taking afternoon tea at the former home of British playwright/songwriter, Noel Coward.

Learn about the Ocho Rios cruise port.

The port of Ocho Rios is right outside of the main town area and is within easy walking distance to the main shopping areas. The port can accommodate a maximum of three ships and more can anchor up outside and tender in.

Ocho Rios, JamaicaOcho Rios, Jamaica, is a port town in the parish of Saint Ann on the north coast of Jamaica, regular port of call on Western Caribbean itineraries, particularly those leaving from Galveston, Texas. A former fishing village, it’s now a resort with a cruise ship harbor and a busy bay beach that’s lined with hotels. Ocho Rios proper is a tiny town, often filled with cruise-ship passengers buzzing throughout the day at Island Village, an outdoor mall with a few decent restaurants, a 200-seat movie theater, and several jewelry and souvenir shops. But nightlife is more scarce here than in Montego Bay or Negril. Most shops close by 6 p.m., when the ships take to the sea.

Jamaica tourist attractions

Outside the resorts, Ocho Rios hosts two of Jamaica’s most famous attractions: Jamaica’s most famous waterfalls – Dunn’s River Falls that drop 695 feet directly into the ocean — and Dolphin Cove, where visitors can swim with dolphins, sharks, and stingrays.

The cool mountain waters plunge 600 feet to smooth limestone beds, then stream under the roadway before mingling with the turquoise Caribbean Sea. Whether you climb the falls or swim in the chilly eddies on the ocean side, you’re sure to remember this place.

Swimming with the Dolphins at Dolphin Cove Ocho Rios

Dolphin Cove Ocho Rios is a a magnificent property located around 10 minutes from central Ocho Rios. Visitors to Jamaica have the opportunity to swim with these remarkable creatures in their natural habitat. Visitors also have the opportunity to to swim, hold, fee and learn about the evolutionary secrets of the Caribbean sharks.

Blue Hole Jamaica – Ocho Rios’ Hidden Gem

Blue Hole Jamaica otherwise known as the Irie Blue Hole or the Secret Falls is located in the hills of Jamaica on the border of the parishes of St. Ann and St. Mary, around 25 minutes from the town of Ocho Rios.

Chukka Caribbean Adventure’s Zion Bus Line

Jamaican Country Bus, the “Zion Bus Line”, will take you on a unique tour from Island Village in Ocho Rios, via Claremont to the birth and final resting place of the King of Reggae, Bob Marley.
