Falmouth, Jamaica

Who has cruised to Falmouth???? We have done Ocho Rios twice but never this port and I was wondering how close the shops/restaurants etc are to the ship. Also is there anything closeby that is an absolute "must see"?

Jackie we were at Falmouth once when it was very new. There are shops at the port and some food. Also a small local market. I'm sure more has opened by now. See if you can go on RCI's website and find the Port Explorer. That would have more up to date info if they have one online

We were at Falmouth on our last cruise. Can't help you much as we just got off and did some shopping and had a drink in the secured area. It was all new.

When we were at Falmouth in October aboard Allure of the Seas we decided to just walk around some; they have self-guided walking tour pamphlets available right at the port. While we we’re walking around, an elderly local woman asked if we were looking for someplace. When we told her we were just wandering she advised us that wasn’t a very good idea. :huh2:

Some friends of ours took a city tour on a horse-drawn wagon that they enjoyed. The port itself had a lot of shops and restaurants under construction, so it should be quite nice by now.

A lot of the excursions offered seemed to be the same ones you get in Ocho Rios but with longer bus rides to get there...
