13 Dunn's River Falls
Dunn's River Falls is located near Ocho Rios and is one of the most popular day trips from Negril. What's so special about these falls? Well, you can climb them without ropes or even wetsuits. That's because Mother Nature has shaped the limestone cliffs into the shape of stairs. An adventure playground for young and old.
Water Shoes are necessary, and you can also get them on site. There are several entrances and exits, but the most ingenious start from the very bottom. There, where the river flows into the sea. By the way, it is one of the few beaches in the world where a waterfall flows directly into the sea.
There is also a really nice water park for children, with water slides, a climbing park with zip lines, cafés and restaurants and handicrafts by local artists.

14 Black River and Floyd's Pelican Bar Tour
One of the most brilliant tours in all of Jamaica. First, you go to the Black River, there you can see the impressive, huge crocodiles up close. The Black River is truly black, which is due to its bottom. You see many birds, partly whole trees are full of birds. Our favorite is the Jesus Bird, it's called that because it can walk on water.

After the Black River, we go to a bar. Doesn't it sound special? I understand. But now, imagine the craziest place for a bar, right in the middle of the ocean. No way. Yes, there is.
Floyd's Pelican Bar is really and truly in the middle of the Caribbean Sea. What you can build out of driftwood, palm fronds, junk, and old wood on a few stilts, you can see here. At first, it was just a little hangout for him and his fisherman friends, then the tourists came, but the bar hadn't lost any of its vibes. Be sure to bring a memento and decorate the bar with it. Or have your name immortalized in the planks.
- Tip: With a bit of luck, you'll see dolphins!
