Ocho Rios (eight rivers) affectionately known as Ochi is located on the north coast of Jamaica and up until twenty years ago was just a small sleepy fishing village. Then came the vast investment and in what seemed like no time Ocho Rios became one of the leading tourist destinations in the Caribbean. One of the keys to the success of Ocho Rios was the installation of a deep water pier that can accommodate 3 cruise ships comfortably filling the streets and market squares of Ocho Rios on a daily basis.
Away from the town and the luxury hotels Ocho Rios also plays host to some of the most beautiful natural wonders on the island. The cascading waterfalls of Downsriver falls and Eden falls will take your breath away and the tropical paradise of Fern Gully goes far beyond any botanical gardens.
