Lots of shopping store you can see some of the items over priced. But it's nice to see a new place and near from the port.

Great area with lots of varied shopping and eating. Prices can vary from one store to the other, so look for deals. No haggling here. Very safe and lots to see along the port.

Took a tour of island. The Jamaican driver must have said how expensive it was there 100 times! Overbuilt. Wouldn't go on vacation there. Was on cruise. Had to take boat to port.

This is a nice, easy port for a cruiser. You won't leave the port with a memory etched in your mind forever, but it has shopping, excursions and constant sunshine. Clean and busy.

Traffic is bumper-to-bumper, parking is at a premium and there are people jay-walking everywhere! Most of the shops in the immediate vicinity cater to the cruise ship tourists. Lots of over-priced souvenirs. Many high-end jewellery shops that the average person... More
