Cliff Jumping/Diving At The Rick's Cafe Negril.. ------------------------------------------ Among the best places to cliff jump in Jamaica is Rick’s Cafe in Negril. Greenery abounds at Rick’s and collides in the most spectacular way with the deep blues of the nearby ocean on the cliffside. The water in the cove nearby is an inviting turquoise color, and many people include cliff diving or jumping here as part of their stay in Jamaica. Rick’s Café is a popular spot to spend the day, and has a bar, restaurant, and even a lounge area. There are also umbrellas and cosy cabanas close to the bar. Rick’s Café is especially popular with people who want to cliff jump, or those who want to just sit on the edge of a dramatic cliff side vantage and take in a spectacular sunset. Richard Hershman. Negril was a lesser known touristic destination at this time, and the venue added something new, not only to Negril, but to Jamaica. It was the first public bar and restaurant in the area with such outstanding views of the sunset. The total property is about 2 acres, which means there is plenty of room to explore. Rick’s Café is located on top of a 35-foot high cliff, which makes for amazing views. There are upstairs rooms, which are available only if you order food. The bar is usually most crowded around sunset, so make your plans to go there well in advance to get there early. #travelloguejamaica #jamaicatravellogue #traveljamaica #travel #tourjaaica #tour #travelagent #travelagents #travelagentjamaica #cliffdiving #cliffdivingjamaica #cliffjumping #cliffjumpingjamaica #iberostar #halfmoonhotel #negril #hedonism #ochorios #montegobay #sandals #moonpalacejamaica #sunsetbeach #grandpalladiumresorts #jamaica (at Rick's Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkePoMtOUUf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Jamaica's National Dish "Ackee n Saltfish with Roasted Breadfruit" ------------------------------------------ The Breadfruit is a common food tree in Jamaica . It was introduced from Tahiti in about 1792 by Captain William Bligh, and soon became an important food source for slaves. The first plants were established in the Bath Botanical Garden in St. Thomas . Jamaica’s staple breakfast, is a tasty and nutritious way to start the day. However, even though ackee is the national fruit of Jamaica, neither ingredient is indigenous to the island. As with so much of modern Jamaica, even the breakfast has its roots in 18th-century colonialism. The fruit is African, the fish is European, but the finished dish is definitely Jamaican. The ackee fruit, which grows on a large tree, originates in West Africa and is thought to have been brought to the Caribbean during the mid-1700s. It is easy to grow and prepare, and is one of the many African legacies of the Jamaican people. Care must be taken in the preparation of ackee due to poisonous toxins present in parts of the fruit. The outer red fruit looks something like a red bell pepper before it is fully ripe. When ripe, the fruit opens and releases some of its toxins (it shouldn’t be picked or prepared before this time). Inside the fruit there are dark coloured seeds, again not to be eaten due to toxicity, and yellow flesh — the bit that is eaten. The yellow flesh is then boiled. The fruit is so ubiquitous in Jamaica that it can be purchased fresh, in bags from street vendors, or even canned in the supermarket. During ackee season, it is normal to see people picking ackee from roadside trees to take home. Saltfish is another import and is traditionally made from cod, although today any whitefish can be used (oily fish wouldn’t work due to the drying process). The fish is prepared and then dried before being salted to preserve it. Historically, drying is the oldest form of food preservation known. The northern European nations have been drying whitefish for more than 500 years. Salting was introduced during the 17th century, and subsequently this preserved and nutritious food began to be exported. #travelloguejamaica (at Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckj0XF3O0SD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fern Gully Jamaica ------------------------------------------ Fern Gully is a winding scenic stretch of road which starts in Ocho Rios and runs for three miles, ending up in the community of Colgate. The area gets its name from the wide variety of ferns which grow in the area, towering high above the road forming a shady tunnel of lush greenery. The varieties of plant life may be lost on many visitors but keen botanists will enjoy seeing approximately 300 varieties of fern in addition to other species such as Blue Mahoe and Banana trees. The roadway through Fern Gully was established in 1907 when an earthquake destroyed one of the eight rivers in the Ocho Rios area. The river bed was subsequently paved and the roadway was established. Vendors line the road, selling wooden carvings and sculptures. The area is famous for life sized sculptures of "anatomically exaggerated" males. Some stalls will allow you to have your picture taken with one of the sculptures for a small fee. #travelloguejamaica #jamaicatravellogue #ferngully #ferngullyjamaica #ochorios #ochoriosjamaica #negril #montegobay #traveljamaica #travel #tour #tourjamaica #excursion #excurionjamaica #jamaica #jamaicancraft #travelagent (at Fern Gully) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckq0z1auDjL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Glistening Waters "The Luminous Lagoon" ------------------------------------------ EXPERIENCE THE BEAUTY OF NATURE Glistening Waters is Jamaica’s only natural night-time attraction. A boat ride on a truly magical bay. An experience not to be missed! Starting daily at sunset, we begin nightly boat tours of the famous Luminous Lagoon. You will see things that will make you appreciate the beauty Mother Nature has created for us to witness and experience! Truly, a sight to be seen! If you’re staying in Jamaica, be sure to book a tour with Glistening Waters and reward yourself with a truly memorable experience you will remember forever. As the boat cruises around, the water is disturbed and the organisms begin to glow. You will see an eerie light show illuminating from the back of the boat and all around from the wake. This tour of the Luminous Lagoon takes approximately 45-60 minutes. This lagoon, surrounded by mangroves, is home to microscopic organisms that emit a bio-luminescent light when agitated. The water glows a beautiful blue and becomes illuminated when these organisms are disturbed. As the fish in the lagoon swim and dart around, you can see their outlines as streaks of light, shooting around in the darkness of night. When it rains, the lagoon ‘lights up’ with the drops of water dancing on the surface. Truly an amazing experience! Plan ahead and bring a towel and swimsuit so you can take a swim during the night-time tour on the Luminous Lagoon to illuminate yourself and the waters around you. Bucket list item, for sure… The lagoon and bay is about 3-8 feet, or more, in depth. It’s relatively shallow for the area it covers. Those who wish can enjoy a swim in the lagoon during the boat tour. You will experience the glow all around you as you splash and swim around. An experience like no other, so be sure to bring a swim suit and enjoy! The more you splash, the more you glow! Your captain will explain the science behind this effect as well as the benefits of this mineral water to you while on the Luminous Lagoon. #travelloguejamaica #jamaicatravellogue #glisteningwatersjamaica #luminouslagoonjamaica #negril #montegobay #ochorios #traveljamaica #tour (at Glistening Waters-Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckn0G-5OIXc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
