Watersports
The calm waters off Jamaicas north coast create ideal conditions
for a variety of watersports, all of which are offered at the
various resorts. In line with the conservation credo fostered by
caring local activists, large marine parks dot the coast and in
these areas only non-motorised watersports are allowed.
Snorkelling is always fun with a rainbow world of dancing fish
waiting just below the surface, giant rays that drift sedately by
and wonderful corals and sea fans to admire.
The diving is amazing with wall dives, several excellent wreck
dives and an underwater wonder, the incredible submerged city of
Port Royal. In the devastating earthquake of 1692 the city slid
into the ocean and legend has it that if you listen carefully you
can still hear the church bell tolling...
