- Doctor’s Cave Beach - This half-day tour takes visitors to the renowned Montego Bay Hip Strip, home to Doctor’s Cave Beach. Known for nearly a century as one of Jamaica’s most famous beaches, it boasts crystal-clear turquoise waters and nearly white sand. Its sheltered location ensures calm waters. The tour guide will escort guests to the check-in area. At the counter, guests may inquire about renting beach chairs and umbrellas (optional). Alternatively, they can settle on the beach first and return later for rentals. Beautiful palm, coconut, and sea grape trees offer shaded areas perfect for laying out towels. Remember to bring towels, sunblock, and sunglasses. Various water sports are available for a fee, including snorkeling gear. Bars and cafes offer a place to relax with a beer or enjoy a sandwich or local hot lunch. Guests have up to 2 hours to soak up the sun.
- Margaritaville Montego Bay - Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville is perched on the cliffs along the Hip Strip, just up the street from Doctor’s Cave Beach. It’s the ideal spot for a hangout with a special someone or a family retreat after a delightful time at the world-famous Doctor’s Cave Beach. Enjoy the 120ft long waterslide or bounce on one of the many water trampolines in the water park. The crisp, clear Caribbean water awaits to embrace guests as they splash from the slide. Classic American and local Jamaican jerk chicken and pork dishes are served alongside ice-cold drinks and reggae music. The finest margaritas are served daily. Don’t forget to pick up a favorite Margaritaville souvenir or memorabilia before leaving. For those on an extended vacation in Montego Bay, return at night for the dance club segment, open until 2 am.
- Hip Strip - The Montego Bay Hip Strip is renowned for some of the best souvenir shopping around! Numerous gift shops and craft markets offer a variety of local art and crafts, as well as items like T-shirts, caps, mugs, Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee, rums, and memorabilia of Bob Marley and Usain Bolt.

Disappointed - Driver didn't know we had admission to the de cove beach . Which we paid. I did get a refund for that part. Also the shopping store w stopped at was way too expensive. It's plenty places in mobay that's way cheaper and affordable. That's not right. Picture frame $45.
