What do you think when you hear Jamaica? Tropical reggae rhythms? Jerk chicken? White-sand beaches and mountain waterfalls?
You're spot on, but it's full of even more surprises. From world-renowned golf courses to outdoor adventure, Funjet divulges the info you need to make the most of your next vacation to the easy-going island.
Looking to get into the rhythm while on vacay? There's no shortage of local bands, but a trip to the village of Nine Mile for a tour of Bob Marley's home and final resting place should be on every music fan's bucket list.
If you want to experience the island like a local, find a roadside jerk chicken stand. Check out Scotchies' two locations-in Ocho Rios and Montego Bay-for a reliably epic encounter with Jamaican jerk flavor. Later, be sure to sample some patties, flaky pastry turnovers filled with spiced meat.
When you land in Jamaica, one thing's clear right away, the landscapes are surreal. Get ready to tee off with mountains at your back and to sink seaside putts. At Cinnamon Hill Golf Club, you'll find a breezy course along the coast, and a challenging, mountainous back nine. Higher in the hills on the old Rose Hall Estate, The White Witch Golf Club serves up stunning views and exciting elevation changes.
When you're ready to ease into some off-the-beach adventure, make your way to the Martha Brae River. Hop onto a guided bamboo raft and enjoy the cool shade of bamboo and banana trees along the banks while you meander downstream. For a slightly wilder ride, head to Blue Mountain Peak for some challenging, grin-inducing mountain biking.
