Port Antonio - Introduction

The rugged and scenic parish of Portland is home to one of the most beautiful towns in Jamaica – Port Antonio. With a lively market and an interesting collection of Georgian buildings mixed with tin-roofed houses, ‘Portie’ is lively by day and peaceful by night.

Inland are lush green rainforests and the Rio Grande Valley, one of Jamaica’s best territories for hiking, birding and other outdoor pursuits.

The south east of Port Antonio is a succession of attractive communities—Fairy Hill, famous for its gentle beaches, Boston Beach, known for its surf scene and famous Jerk cuisine, and Long Bay for its dramatic setting and mellow vibe.

Wander through the streets of Port Antonio or watch an afternoon disappear on the sublime Frenchman’s Cove. Repose at Chillin’ in Long Bay, one of Jamaican’s funkiest beach communities or disappear in the lush green world of the Rio Grande Valley. There is much that awaits you in Port Antonio, Jamaica’s main banana port.
