Ports of call

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

1 out of 5

Jamaica was my least favorite all the way around. We did the Bombay Beach club excursion. It was fun, but this is a public beach that they close to the locals when the cruise ships come in. When we went to leave there were groups of angry locals lined up at the entry point to the beach. When we booked this, we thought it would be a private beach, which it is not. Also, just walking around after we returned to the port from the beach club my husband and I felt accosted by street vendors and not really safe. We made it to Jimmy Buffets margaritaville and had a great time once we were in there. But then we had to walk thru the street vendors again to get back to the port.
