Blue Mountain Peak

Watching the sunrise is an incredible way to start your day with intention and gratitude for the adventure ahead. Blue Mountain Peak is the most idyllic spot on the island to watch the sun break the horizon, with expansive views of Port Antonio and Kingston. Our adventurous couples will enjoy this early morning 7-mile hike to the top of the world! (Well, the top of the island at least!)

Sunset at 7-mile Beach

Few things in this world are more romantic than watching a sunset over the ocean with your loved one. And the sunset at 7-mile beach in Negril is no exception. With white sand and crystal clear water, this west end favorite is a beach lover’s paradise by day and the perfect stretch of sand to catch those fiery hues by night.

Snorkel Montego Bay Marine Park

This Marine Park consists of 20 kilometers of stunning shoreline and 16 square kilometers of protected marine area full of abundant ocean life, thriving coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangrove ecosystems. You can spend the day snorkeling the reefs, kayaking the mangroves, and taking a guided boat tour where you’ll learn all about the preservation of aquatic life in Jamaica - all while knowing you’re supporting a local group that preserves the marine as well as nature across the rest of the island.

Romantic Raft Ride in the Blue Lagoon

Hidden away in the jungles around Port Antonio lies a striking swimming hole filled with crystal clear water waiting for you to jump on in. From here you can hop on a private bamboo raft that will take you out to Monkey Island at low tide where you can spend a romantic afternoon on a secluded beach with your partner.

Where to Eat

Jamaica is known for its all-inclusives where you’ll have access to luxury cuisine at your fingertips. But if you find yourself wanting to escape the hotel grounds for a more local setting, here are some eateries you won’t want to miss.

Sundays at Lover’s Leap

Retreat to the mountains 1700 feet above sea level for a memorable meal at Lover’s Leap. Legend has it a jealous plantation owner threatened to split up a pair of lovers who decided to run away together. They ended up at this cliff edge and were caught by a golden net placed by the moon. And they were destined to be together forever as the moon set on the horizon.

Spend a Sunday evening here to experience the local flavors and local music while catching ocean views from the tallest lighthouse in the Western Hemisphere.

Houseboat Grill in Montego Bay

Widely considered the best restaurant in Montego Bay, Houseboat Grill is a romantic hotspot for honeymooners to enjoy an elegant dinner on the water. This eatery is quite literally on a houseboat, anchored in the Bogue Lagoon, with soft lighting, exquisite cuisine, and an upper deck for an incredible stargazing experience. The ambiance calls for a small crowd so make sure to make reservations ahead of time because tables fill up quickly.

Scotchies

Featured in Conde Nast Traveler’s Best Food in Jamaica list, you’ll find an iconic Scotchies establishment in both Montego Bay and Ocho Rios. And if you came to Jamaica with the intention to try Jamaican Jerk chicken, you cannot leave without a visit to this restaurant! You'll love this authentic, no-frills eatery that is said to have the most authentic jerk on the entire island.
