On the northern shore of Jamaica to the east of Montego Bay you’ll find the popular cruise port and resort area of Ocho Rios. In spite of the many cruise passengers that are combing the shops most days in season, Ocho Rios doesn’t have much of a tourist center aside from the little shopping malls.

Ocho Rios is home to some great all-inclusive resorts that aren’t as expensive as other regions of the island. You’ll also find some little shopping areas along the shore, but not much else.
