BLACK RIVER SAFARI AND NATURE TOUR
$49 Per Person  (7 Hours)

Discover the beauty of the South Coast with approximately a 1-1/2 hour boat tour. Launch up Jamaica's largest navigable river and through Jamaica's largest wetland area, the Black River lower morass. The tour takes you six miles up the river and back, during which a running commentary is given by your captain/tour guide on both the ecology and a little history of the area.

Over 100 species of birds have been recorded in the Black River morass and many are seen during this trip. The endangered American Crocodile (C.actus) inhabits the area and sightings are very, very frequent. Just remember not to let your hands drag in the water to attract them!

The wetland vegetation is of special interest with three species of Mangrove, Thatch Palms, Royal Palms, and freshwater swamp forest dominating.

On this tour, you will also travel through Montpelier, and see the Ferris White House and the Water Wheel. Rather than tie you into a set lunch menu with a corresponding cost, your guide will direct you to one of many choices for local food. Personally, we would be looking for the jerk chicken!

A not-to-be-forgotten experience.
