Attractions
This famous beach actually helped shape the fate of this popular tourist town. In the early 1920s, a famous British osteopath declared that the water had curative powers after swimming here, a claim that began to lure visitors from around the world. Hotels sprouted up, and the area became a thriving tourist destination.
The namesake cave was destroyed by a hurricane in 1932, but the beach is as popular as ever – hanging out here is one of the top things to do in Montego Bay, and it’s often crowded with cruise ship passengers.
Change rooms, restaurants, and shops are all available nearby, and you can rent beach equipment here, too. Note that there’s a fee to access the beach.
