Blue Hole: Private Cliff-Jump & Hidden Waterfall Swim

Plunge into Jamaica's most electric secret: a series of turquoise freshwater pools hidden deep in the rainforest. Cliff-jump, rope-swing, and swim beneath cascading falls — untouched, electric, unforgettable.

What to expect

Your guide leads you along a jungle path to a series of vivid-blue freshwater pools fed by underground springs and a 25-ft waterfall. You'll cliff-jump from mossy ledges, swing on a rope into the deepest pool, and swim through a natural grotto. The water is a jaw-dropping cobalt that no photograph truly captures. Early arrival means the forest is still quiet and the light is filtered gold through the canopy.

Good to know

Blue Hole is about 20 minutes from the cruise pier — arrange a private driver or a local guide who includes transfers. Wear a swimsuit under clothes, bring water shoes, and go early (depart pier by 8 am) to beat midday crowds and ensure a comfortable return before all-aboard.
