Questions
How far is Ocho Rios from the airports?
Roughly two hours from Sangster International in Montego Bay, or about ninety minutes from Kingston.
Which excursions are worth it?
Dunn's River and the Blue Hole are the two we recommend most. We'll tell you which ones we'd skip for your particular party.
Is it walkable?
The town centre is, and many resorts are a short taxi ride away. It's more town-like than Negril or Trelawny.
