Travel tidbits
Take a Walking Tour
Take a leisurely stroll through the streets of Montego Bay to experience the city's rich history. Begin your tour at The Dome, built in 1837 and used to manage the city's water supply, and meander to see St. James Parish Church, Town House Restaurant, Burchell Baptist Church, and end at Sam Sharpe Square, an important sight in the fight to end slavery in Jamaica. In the square, you'll see The Cage, which was used as a temporary prison for slaves, the Civic Centre which houses a museum dedicated to the history of St. James Parish, and the Sharpe Monument, a comemorative sculpture depicting a preacher delivering a sermon to interested listeners.
Maroons
The Maroons make for an interesting story and an educational afternoon. In the early 17th century, the Spanish were under attack and set their slaves free to flee the island. Then, the free slaves became the legendary Maroons, and continued to fight the British to maintain that freedom until a peace treaty was signed in 1739. Today, you can visit this self-sufficient society living high in the mountains, just as they did 300 years ago.
Rose Hall Great House
Tour this beautiful ornate estate, once the home of Annie Palmer, the white witch of Rose Hall. Dead for more than 170 years, her legend still evokes memories of her monstrous reign as the mistress of the Great House. All 3 of her husbands met their death at her hands, while countless slaves suffered as a result of her ruthlessness. Her evil reign ended with her murder in 1831. Be sure to take your camera; many visitors have discovered shadows in the pictures revealing the spirit of the ghost, that legends say still haunts the house today.
Doctor’s Cave Beach
A spectacular crescent-shaped beach located in the heart of both tourist and local action. Fees apply to use the public beach area. Hotel guests of Breezes Montego Bay are not charged a fee to access the beach. Doctor's Cave Beach got its unique name when Sir Herbert Baker, an English osteopath wrote an article describing the beach's curative powers.

Good to know – All paperwork is handled by the hotel. During the wedding the couple will be required to sign 3 Marriage Registers, in addition to the signature of their witnesses (2 will be provided, in the event the couple does not have their own), and the Minister's signature. The Minister will then give the couple one of the Marriage Registers known as the Bridal copy and the other 2 will be used to apply for their Marriage Certificate. This is a legal document with a raised seal and the Jamaican Coat of Arms and is legal worldwide. This Certificate takes some time to be processed and will be mailed to the couple. Please provide the wedding coordinator with a proper address to send the document. BRING ALL ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS with you to the resort. Weddings can take place at any of the following locations on the resort grounds: Cupid gazebo in the garden by the beach, Corals gazebo on the pier in the ocean, Picturesque garden by the waterfall, Directly on the sand in front of the East Beach. Wedding ceremonies are a traditional ceremony performed by a licensed Minister. It includes a legal declaration of your freedom to marry your partner, traditional marriage ceremony questions from the minister, and a ring exchange section. You may add your own personal vows to the ceremony; to do so, provide the wedding coordinator with a copy of them on arrival.
