2 Best Sights in Blue Mountains, Jamaica

In this nature preserve, part of the Blue and John Crow Mountains National Park, nature trails wind through rugged terrain and offer the chance to spot reclusive creatures, including the streamer-tail hummingbird (known as the doctor bird) and the rare swallowtail butterfly. Rustic camping facilities are available, including showers and shelters. It's about 15 miles (25 km) north of Kingston on a very slow and winding road. Bird-watching, guided hikes, and coffee tours are offered.

High in the misty Blue Mountains you can visit the source of some of the best coffee in the world. In this rarefied air where time seems to have stood still, you can tour the factory that was built in 1923 and witness coffee processing from planting to distribution. The tour takes about 45 minutes and includes a sample.

Tours must be booked five days in advance.
