Let’s visit a fun place now and take a break from history. If you are in love with sea creatures like dolphins, sharks and stingrays you better make a visit to this great fun loving place. It is an interesting day trip if you are in Ochi Rios or in Montego Bay areas. A place you must not forget your swimsuit, sun block and a big hat. This place allows you to play and swim with dolphins, stingrays and even pet sharks.
The place has a rustic atmosphere which is welcoming. There are a few attractions to choose to spend your day, dolphins being the main one. It is well worth the time and money as you can swim, pet, play and even kiss the dolphins. There are friendly instructors to guide you and help you. If you do not feel comfortable getting into the water with dolphins and not a great swimmer you can simply pet them from the shore and have a close view of these amazing creatures. The second attraction that really caught my attention was the stingrays. They are these unique sea creatures that you really feel afraid at the look of it but as you pet and snorkel with them you really start to admire them. There are many of them and I was told that they are been trained before they are been allowed to swim with people. The down side of this place is taking of photographs are prohibited and only photos taken by their own cameramen can be purchased at the end of the day. Another unique experience is the shark show. There are white sharks you can pet and hold for an attractive sum of money. Or if you are not a risk taker just watch the shark show from the deck. But watch out there are pirates on the deck!!
Other attractions include a jungle trail which is also entertaining for kids as you can pet snakes, iguanas and beautiful parakeets. Also large spiders and enormous cobwebs could be spotted on the way. Then comes the speed boat rides. It is a thrilling experience too. If speed boats are not your favorite water sport why not try out the kayaking. If you are exhausted with all these activities you have an option of lying down in the sun and just enjoying the beautiful weather or try out a nice Jamaican jerk chicken or steam fish with cocktails made with Jamaican rum to beat the burning sun.
Don’t forget those souvenirs which seem to crowd every part of Jamaica. Since Jamaica is a tourist destination you just cannot escape the souvenir shops. T-shirts, caps, slippers, towels, ornaments, jewelry, all have these funny slogans and the Jamaican flag colors. Oops! Also don’t forget the photos.
Dunn’s Fall- Jamaica
A few minutes away from Dolphin Cove is another popular attraction is the climbing of the Dunn’s river falls. With water icy cold and gushing down the rocks it definitely is a must. It is not a just the climb that is interesting. On the way to the top you can do these fun things like dive in backwards to a pool of water or slide down the fall with the speed of water or even stand under the gushing water for a shoulder massage. It is recommended to climb the falls with rubber sole water shoes but bare feet will do too. The water shoes can be either rented or purchased at the top of the water fall near the entrance. You make your way down to the beach by steps and start climbing back to the top of the fall. There are guides to take you and assist you to climb. The entire party holds hands and follows the guide. Mind you it is slippery and the force of the water might push you down. But it is fun and exciting!! So don’t miss out on this experience. Anyways, by the time you leave Jamaica you will be saying “no problem mon” or “everything is everything” with a happy smile.
