Waterloomarc Posted May 6, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 6, 2019 We’ve been to Montego Bay before and it was a bust. Literally got off the ship and got right back on. (We typically the type to just go spur of the moment with whoever has the best sign) Does anybody have a good recommendation? Probably just a beach day with the baby but all the carnival ones are sold out already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted May 7, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Google "Montego Bay Beaches"...lots of stuff pops up...with what kind of surf there is, if food/drink is nearby, etc.... You seldom need an "excursion" for a beach day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted May 7, 2019 #3 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Stay on the ship...it won't be crowded, very peaceful. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitkat343 Posted May 9, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 9, 2019 We stopped a different port in Jamaica, so I can only offer limited assistance. My favorite restaurant in Jamaica is a chain called Scotchies, which has really good jerk chicken and delicious bread. According to tripadvisor there's one in Montego Bay. Also, the first time we visited Jamaica in a land based trip we used this company for a tour: http://www.barrettadventures.com They did a very good job and you can contact them to see what they'd recommend for a family. We visited Jamaica with children our second visit, but stopped at a different port. Dolphin's cove is great for a family, but I think too far away from Montego Bay so hopefully barretadventures can guide you to a good family excursion closer to where your port is. Best of luck to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was our favorite restaurant when we lived in Jamaica. 🙂 Dolphin's Cove is an option, but it's outside of Ocho Rios so it would be a drive. See if you can swing a day pass for the Jewel Runaway Bay, it would be fantastic for kids. They've got a great waterpark and their service is excellent.
