Another location in the parish of Westmoreland to add to your list: BENTA FALLS💦

All of my hesitations and emotions captured in a few images going down into this Blue Hole.

It was scary, looked way too deep for my liking and I refused to go down without a life guard. (Pictured on the last frame. Lol) It was mind over matter.

But, I did it and it was a whole vibe. Another new location ticked off in the parish of Westmoreland.

Recommending some of my favourite outdoor spots to explore across the island.

1. Martha Brae, Trelawny
2. The Blue Mountains
3. Old Spanish Bridge, St. Mary (best enjoyed off peak hours)
4. West End Negril to chase the sunset at Rick’s Cafe
5. Fire Fly Estate, St. Mary

There are a bunch of outdoorsy spots that we can visit and practice social distancing. Go explore and travel with care! Also, sound on to hear the birds chirping in this video. #TravelWithCare #Jamaica

Who else loves a good waterfall? Currently going

Who else loves a good waterfall?

Currently going through the top things to do in the parish of St. Thomas and visiting Reggae Falls is definitely one of them.

Pro Tip: If you’re looking to enjoy and roam around the falls freely, visiting on the weekend is a no no. A mid-week visit would be more ideal. Also, it is not privately owned (yet)👀 so as of the entrance is free as of December 2019.

The Caribbean is re-opening! 🏝 As of right now,

The Caribbean is re-opening! 🏝 As of right now, here are the islands that are currently welcoming international travellers:

Now: Antigua & Barbuda, Jamaica, St. Lucia, St. Barts, U.S Virgin Islands

Starting July 1st: The Bahamas, Bermuda, Cuba ,Aruba, Grenada, Barbados.
Turks & Caicos (July22)

For many of these small islands, the reopening of borders are a mix of emotions. But most, if not all, are strongly dependent on tourism to keep things moving. Tourism in the Caribbean is the main industry. Vacationers, honeymooners, travellers, backpackers, dreamers holla when you have the green light.

To lighten ‘the weight’, the worries and the unexpected, outdoor activities and road trips are recommended.

Islands such as: Grenada, Dominica, The Cayman Islands, St Kitts & Nevis, Jamaica are ideal for outdoor adventures.

The travel industry is changing. While we observe how the industry adopts travel safe and travel with care.
