Throughout this sightseeing tour of Ocho Rios, you will see and learn why the parish of St. Ann is known as the Garden Parish of the Island. Get your cameras ready and let's go! From the cruise port, you will venture into the resort hills of Ocho Rios to the Shaw Park Ridge. Here, you will capture the breathtaking view of the bay, cruise port, and the town of Ocho Rios. Then, venture off into the mystical Fern Gully where you will find a canopy of foliage that is so thick and tall that it blocks out the sunlight. Drive through the ancient riverbed that was created by a collapsed cave. From a height of 787 feet or 280 meters, you will have a panoramic view of the lush hills of St. Ann, and the neighboring scenic parish of St. Mary. From this descent, navigate through bustling Ocho Rios pausing at St. John's Anglican Church for photos. Your next stop will be in Mammee Bay, home of Scotchies Jerk Shack. Jerk pork and chicken are ancient Jamaican delicacies. The meats are barbequed on a huge grill of pimento logs. Known in every continent of the world, you too will want to observe the cooking process. The aromas are mouth-watering and the taste moreish! Purchase a sample box or meal. Your tour guide will help with ordering instructions. Next, enjoy a sightseeing drive of St. Ann's Bay, the parish capital of St. Ann. It is the site of the fourth landing of Christopher Columbus where he was marooned. A small statue of Columbus stands in the town to commemorate his discovery of the bay. Be sure to look out for the parish church and old courthouse. Returning to Ocho Rios, a visit to the Taj Mahal Shopping Centre allows free time to browse among the many shops for souvenirs as we near the conclusion of the overview of St. Ann.
