The historic Falmouth Cruise Port is a must-visit, offering a glimpse into the rich history of the area. Known as the first place in the Western Hemisphere to have electricity and running water, Falmouth is a town steeped in history and charm.

Take a leisurely stroll through the town, admiring the Georgian architecture and vibrant local life. If the rain starts to fall, duck into one of the local cafes or shops for a taste of authentic Jamaican cuisine or to pick up a unique souvenir. The Taj Mahal Shopping Center offers duty-free shopping, perfect for finding that special memento of your trip.

Evening on the Lagoon

As the day winds down, prepare for an unforgettable evening experience with Lagoon Evening tour. Starting at 12:30 PM and running until 6:30 PM, this tour combines the best of Falmouth’s natural and cultural attractions.

Begin with a relaxing raft down the famous Martha Brae River, where you’ll visit Miss Martha’s Herb Garden and learn why Jamaicans swear by their herbal teas. The tour then takes you through the old town of Falmouth, showcasing its historic buildings and vibrant culture. After a delicious Jamaican lunch, the highlight of the evening awaits at the Luminous Lagoon. Known as one of the brightest glowing lagoons in the world, a swim here is a magical experience that will leave you glowing—literally.

“Lovely day outing in Jamaica - The overall tour guide for the three mini-excursions was exceptional. The boat trip to the lagoon and the swimming in the bio-luminous water was amazing.” (Reviewed at: 2022-05-16)
