Braco Village at Breezes Rio Bueno (Grand Lido Braco)

Sights & Excursions

Ocho Rios and Dunn’s River Falls
Ocho Rios is in the middle of the long north coast. It is the fastest growing tourist resort on the island and a busy port of call on Caribbean cruises. It still retains much of the charm of the pretty fishing village it once was. Dunn’s River Falls is a celebrated beauty spot where waterfalls cascade over unique formations of tiers of rocks inviting a 180m climb. Afterward recover on the white sand (textile) beach.

Negril
This resort at the western tip of the island has 11km of white sandy beach, one of the best in the world and protected by offshore coral reefs. The atmosphere is informal, carefree and totally laid-back. By law, no building is higher than the tallest palm tree.

Black River Safari
This exciting nature tour will give you a taste of the unspoilt south coast. Refresh yourself in the Ys waterfalls (bring costumes!) before taking a boat down the Black River and meeting the odd friendly crocodile.

Rose Hall
This plantation mansion was built in 1760 and has now been restored to its former magnificence. The second mistress of the estate was Annie Palmer, said to be the ‘White Witch of Rose Hall’, who ruled with cruelty and met with a violent death.

Greenwood Great House
Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s cousin built this house. It is decorated in the old plantation style with fine pieces of antique furniture and contains a rare collection of musical instruments.
