Experience Montego Bay's dynamic blend of colonial heritage and modern Caribbean charm.
A scenic panoramic drive through the city showcases its fascinating past, rooted in Jamaica's 18th-century sugar and banana trades. Watch for the historic Parish Church of St James (1774), with its impressive limestone architecture and storied past.
You’ll also pass Sam Sharpe Square, named after the Jamaican National Hero and leader of the 1831 Christmas Rebellion — an event that helped pave the way for the abolition of slavery in Jamaica. The square is home to monuments and buildings that offer a glimpse into the city’s colonial era.
Gloucester Avenue is the “Hip Strip” where Montego Bay’s energy comes alive. Vibrant shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues beckon locals and visitors alike. Step inside the Main Street Mall to browse in shops featuring locally made arts and crafts, fashion, jewelry, gourmet foods, and Blue Mountain coffee. It's a great place to seek out souvenirs and gifts that reflect Jamaica’s creativity and culture.
Finally, at lively Margaritaville, relax in the laid-back atmosphere with stunning views of the bay and treat yourself to a cool refreshment (at your own expense). It’s the perfect spot to take photos and savor the vibe of Montego Bay before returning to the ship.
