The name Ocho Rios is Spanish for “Eight Rivers”. That’s probably not the right name for the town, located on Jamaica’s northern coast, as it doesn’t have that many rivers. Once a fishing village, Ocho Rios, Jamaica is currently a popular spot for tourists and passengers of cruise ships. Although boasting many beautiful beaches, Ocho Rios is more famous for its tourist attractions like magnificent waterfalls, lazy rivers, and wonderful gardens. Visitors here look for rainforest bobsled rides, caving, zip lining, river tubing, and swimming with the dolphins. Interested in exploring the place?
