Skip the roads entirely and see Port Antonio's most photogenic coastline — San San Bay, Monkey Island, and Winnifred's community beach — from a small local fishing boat.
What to expect
You depart from San San Bay in a simple, open fishing boat, passing tiny Monkey Island and secluded coves before anchoring for a snorkel over a quiet reef. The boat continues to Winnifred Beach, a community-run beach with no resort development, where a beachside cook can grill fresh fish on request. It feels unmistakably local, not staged for tourists.
Good to know
Arrange the night before or early morning via your hotel concierge or directly at San San Bay; captains don't always answer phones. Bring cash in small JMD/USD bills for the boat and any beach food.
