Villas and Vacation Rentals in South Coast & White House

South Coast & White House

This "quiet side" of Jamaica boasts natural attractions and wildlife refuges, including the Long Bay Morass, Alligator Pond, a refuge for the rare, protected manatee and crocodiles. (Jamaica’s crocodiles are a docile bunch that feed mainly on fish.)

At Black River, boat trips take visitors along Jamaica’s longest river into a freshwater swamp filled with herons, snowy egrets and more of the island’s crocodiles--many of which are so familiar to guides they’ve been given names like George and Fred.

The road between Mandeville and Black River passes through Bamboo Avenue, a two-mile-long green tunnel of century-old bamboo groves. Detour to the Appleton Estate’s sugar factory and rum distillery, and YS Falls, where a series of pools provide ideal swimming.

The Treasure Beach area, between Black River and Alligator Pond, is another excellent spot for swimming one of Jamaica’s most desirable out-of-the-way vacation spot.

From the verdant mountains to the craggy coastline, you’ll find the South Coast of Jamaica is not just another shore.

Come. Here is where you’ll discover another world.
