 Dunn's River Falls - TestimonialsDunn's River Falls: "Had a blast at the falls!" - Just got back last week from a cruise. We visited Ocho Rios and went to the falls. They are beautiful and we had a blast climbing them. Our guides were very nice and made sure everyone had fun. If you are going to Jamaica don't miss the falls.

Dunn's River Falls: "The Falls were the highlight of our cruise!!!" - Hands down, the Falls was the highlight of our family's recent trip to the Caribbean. We did a lot of things, but kept saying the Falls were #1. My 60 year old sister cannot swim and is fearful of water, but was determined to do it and she did. Bring your own aquashoes, give your tour guide your camera, cause you will be too busy climbing to take pictures. The DVD of our group climbing was $40, but worth every penny. Our two guides were very attentive, but we heard later that some guides left their groups and they were stuck climbing the falls themselves, or depending on other. If you have any other questions, feel free to e-mail me with a subject line "Dunn River Falls." --- nene227@adelphia.net, Orlando, FL
Dunn's River Falls: "Loved the Falls" - The falls were the best part of our trip. I will do it again whenever I return to Jamaca. Although I am in fairly good shape, I am by no means an overly active person and I found the hike up to be easy. Do watch where you step. I landed in a hole and have a bruised shin and my husband did the same in a different hole and skined his leg up bad enough to need a trip to the nurses station for bandages afterward. Make sure you take a water proof camera and the guides will take photos of you during stopping points the entire trip. --- Monroe, MI
Dunn's River Falls: "What an exhillerating experience!!!! A MUST DO!!!" - It was an absolute fantastic experience! I would highly recommend visitings the Dunn's River Falls. If you go to Jamaica and don't go to the falls you have truly missed out on one of the greatest experiences! Once you get to the top you really feel like you have accomplished something!!! The tour guides are wonderful and how do they ever remember which camera belongs to which person? But they do and the pictures turned out awesome. I would return to Jamaica just for the falls. Truly worth it and unforgetable!!! Thanks for an experience that I'll never forget! Lisa Cook --- St.Thomas, ON Canada

Negril is seated close to the second largest (6,000 acres) freshwater wetland system in Jamaica. The dominant feature of this area is the Swamp Royal Palm Forest.
Climb the lookout tower where bird watchers or photographers feast their eyes for hours. This world of huge tall morass Royal Palms (Roystonea princeps -- endemic to Jamaica) are shadowed by Water Hyacinth (Eichornia crassipes). There is also Wild and Bitter Tobacco, Bulrushes (yep, the same kind that baby Moses was placed in), Sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense), Giant or Crab Thatch Ferns (Acrostichum aureum) growing some 8 feet tall in areas.
Located just minutes from the Negril roundabout the Royal Palm Reserve is one of those breathtaking attractions that you and or your family will want to see. A Nature Museum informs about the plant and animal life of the reserve. There is also a riverside bar and another lakeside restaurant and bar specializing in natural juices and Jamaican dishes. ..................................................................................................................
