The 10 Best Things to do Good for Big Groups in Kingston, Kingston Parish

February 5, 2022 Layne Dawes

Far from the north coast resort towns, Kingston is Jamaica at its most authentic, a sprawling city of contrasts spread between the east coast and the Blue Mountains. Kingston's diversity is reflected in its disparate neighborhoods, from the wealthy northern suburbs to the less affluent downtown. Travelers can discover the spirit of One Love at the Bob Marley Museum, or sample delicious ice cream at Devon House. Nearby, the former capital of Spanish Town offers insight into the area's history.

This was my first time doing something like this but I had a great time getting through it. It is relatively cheap, and though you may think an hour is a long time, under an adrenaline rush and a ticking clock. It's great for linking up with a group of friends and if you want to do something new. Darren, the Gamesmaster, was a gracious host and good company. Kudos to the management! Excellent idea!

Blue Mountains

Want a wild outdoor adventure that'll leave you breathless, exhilarated and home in time for supper? Then push your way through the dense tropical forest of the Blue Mountains for an afternoon that will feast your eyes and work your quads.

One of us had trained for the Jamaica Defense Force while the other had heard all of the stories about the narrow winding roads, the cool temperatures, the lush jungle, and of course, the stories of an 18 year old private and his first days from home. This was a visit coming for the past 40 years, but always delayed. It was a moving experience to watch the septuagenarian relive the start of his 20 year military career at a base founded n 1841 by the British. Little did they know their escape from yellow fever would be coming up on its 200th anniversary. Be sure to check out the museum on the base. We passed the small towns of Redlight and Irish Town as we traveled the curvy road back to Kingston. We were able to see all the way into the waters of Kingston Harbor from the winding road. Great day!

The drive here from Kingston is spectacular, although a bit nail-biting for first timers. Drive with care, make regular use of your horn going around sharp corners, and be prepared to stop to let big trucks go by. I find the best time to make the drive up is after 9am when most of the traffic will have already driven down the mountain. There are a few (but only a few) decent places to pull over and catch a fantastic view from the road into the mountain valleys. Take your time and if it is safe stop and take some pics. I have driven all across the USA and I can honestly say there are very few roads I have driven that compare with the scenic majesty of this road. On your drive you will pass through the Jamaican Defense Forces base in Newcastle. Pull over by the chain-link fence to get a beautiful view of Kingston and the ocean. Holywell is considered a cloud forest so it is prone to be enveloped in clouds (which you will experience as fog). The circuit up and around the mountain is a well-maintained trail and offers three different overlook decks for beautiful views of the valley below and surrounding mountains (unfortunately there is no seating on these decks). The park charges just $100 JMD for Jamaican residents but about ten times that (about $10 USD) for non-residents. Near the parking area there are some benches to sit and relax and you will likely see some hummingbirds. The Waterfall loop trail is an easier trail than the mountian loop with some decent views as well.

I visited the Bob Marley Museum today anybody who visits Jamaica must see this museum It was Bob’s house in Kingston, his recording studio, where he played football, where he rehearsed, and where he hung out. It’s also where unidentified gunmen tried to assassinate him - you can still see the bullet holes. Our Tour guide was great very informative and friendly.
