The Green Grotto known at various times as the Runaway Bay Caves, Cave Hall Caves, Discovery Bay Caves, Dry Harbour Caves, Hopewell Caves, Rum Caves and Dairy Caves, are among Jamaica's most prominent natural attractions. They are of international repute and have been seeing visitors since the 18th century. Embark on a journey through time as your guided exploration of the caves unfolds the rich history of the caves. Hear stories of the people who have used the caves for various purposes over the years from the Taino Indians to the Spanish who, at the time of the British invasion of Jamaica (in 1655), hid in the caves to avoid capture. Runaway slaves have also used the caves to hide from their former masters and during World War 2, Rum barrels were stored here for safekeeping by the Jamaican Government.

At the end of your experience, enjoy lunch (meals and drinks not included) at one of Jamaica's famous Jerk Centers or local eatery, enjoy the delicious meals with an ice-cold Red Stripe Beer or tropical fruit punch before heading back to your hotel or cruise ship with a heart filled with Jamaica!
