The Place
Montego Bay, Jamaica
City introduction
Jamaica's north-coast resort city and its colonial great houses. Montego Bay is Jamaica's second city and its main cruise and resort port, set on a bay of white-sand beaches along the island's north coast. Gloucester Avenue — the Hip Strip — runs behind Doctor's Cave Beach, while the hills above the city hold Rose Hall, an 18th-century sugar planter's great house, and the remains of several other plantation estates. The Martha Brae river and the Dunn's River Falls at Ocho Rios lie within a day's reach along the coast.
