Falmouth holidays
Falmouth holidays are based in a small characterful town on a fine bay on the north coast of Jamaica, 22 miles east of Montego Bay and its airport. Holidays in Falmouth offer an insight into everyday Jamaican town life and its colonial past. Falmouth is smaller and quieter than Montego Bay and its mix of great beaches and relaxed atmosphere attracts couples and families of all ages. Part of the pleasure of holidays in Falmouth is strolling around the town centre and Georgian port, taking a look at Falmouth’s 18th century churches and striking colonial mansions that include the reputedly haunted Rose Hall Great House.
Falmouth Beaches – Typically Jamaican sunshine paradise
Falmouth holidays will centre on fabulous Falmouth beaches on both sides of the town and unspoilt Falmouth beaches that stretch for miles to the east. Falmouth beach is a typically Jamaican mix of fine golden gently shelving sand, beautiful clear water and verdant green vegetation: a great spot to relax. Falmouth holidays offer plenty of watersports including parasailing, jet-skis and waterskiing. Holidays in Falmouth are popular with scuba divers, with several schools in the area, while golf fans enjoy a selection of 18-hole courses. Falmouth holidays could also include tennis, horse-riding, deep-sea fishing and river rafting.

Jamaica Tourism Enhancement Fee
From May 1st 2005 Jamaica has introduced a US$10 "Jamaican tourist entry charge" which will apply to each tourist visiting Jamaica. The tourist entry fee money will be paid directly to the government in an effort to raise funds to maintain Jamaica’s tourist industry and provide capital for tourism enhancement projects.
