Where do you zip line from the falmouth port? It is out first time going and I want to zip line over the best rainforest. Is it beautiful? What is the most cost effective way to get there and do it.

We have done three locations on Jamaica.

 

Canopy which is closest to Ocho Rios and to far from Falmouth was the most fun and entertaining.

 

The closest ones to Falmouth.

 

1. Like you said Rose Hall. About a nice 15 min air conditioned mini bus ride from port. It actually is a nice tour. You go to the main grounds of Rose Hall where there is a well constructed visitor center with clean restrooms, changing rooms, lockers (for rent). (for those swimming or doing water activities) pool, bar, small food stand. You receive a structured orientation, get your helmet, gloves, and harnass, and the men (big strong men) help you along the way. It has about 7 lines with two great surprises:eek:. Did this one twice on different sailings because we only book thru the ship (RCI).

 

2. The second one which is what we have booked in 6 weeks, is the CHUKKA zip line (Thru RCI).

This one is about a 30 min. air conditioned bus ride from port.

It takes you along the coastline in the bus and then up the side of the mountain to a meeting area. Clean restrooms, mini refreshment stand and lockers for rent.

You get your gear, orientation and take an all terain up to the start.

You walk a path to the first line.

It was awesome, this one is our second favorite (Canopy out of Ocho Rios is our first).

I think their were about 9 lines and the scenary was awesome, the last run you go over the river and sea the coast.

The attendants are very helpful and keep you out of harms way.

 

 

Enjoy we did.
