We stopped off at a private beach for some food (surplus cost) which was lovely, and stopped off a local market on the way home where we got to sample some Jamaican spirits. Dunn’s river trip was amazing and the staff very helpful, snorkelling was good but not much to see in the water where we stopped, and return journey back with open bar was short so only time for two drinks. Overall a good trip and definitely worth the money!”
