Heading to Jamaica in Feburary, staying @ the Secrets Resort in Montiego Bay. Anyone ever been and what's the best excursions to do? My husband wants to go fishing, but from what we've "Googled" about it; it sounds like we should just save our money on that one. Of course any photo suggestions I'll take also. Taking my Canon 7D mark II and my lenses Sigma 70-200 and Canon 18-270.
the mans spending thousands of dollars, let him fish.
Oh, I don't have a problem letting him fish...I love to go fishing too..he just doesn't want to waste his money if it's a bust!!

Don't forget your Macro Lens for those close up shots.
It has been a long time. But there is a bus trip to a waterfalls you walk up. No clue as to the name but you will see offers wherever you stay.
Edit: Looked it up. Dunns River falls.
PS: I'd go fishing.
I have seen that excursion for the Dunns, it does look beautiful! We should just fish, even a bad day of fishing is still better than working, right?

Just remember, if you take your camera fishing you won't catch anything worth taking a picture of. If you don't take your camera you will end up with a record breaking catch.
That's usually how it goes,!!

What??!! People go fishing to catch fish?
Also ..... From Montego Bay you can go to Negril along the coast to see the light house. If you go to Dunns River Falls, you'll be in Ocho Rios. The drive on A3 towards Kingston thru' mid island is nice and there are many photo ops. You can also go along the eastern coast towards Port Antonio. Along the way you can get to the Blue Mountain area. We had to turn back on that road to the mountain due to a mud slide. Continuing on, you can get to the Blue Lagoon area for a neat raft trip down the river. Not a whole lot to see in Kingston, possibly Bob Marley Museum if you're interested and Port Royal.
If you happen to drive, be very very careful esp. around towns. In case of a fender bender you may want to be judicious about if and where to stop. Our rental car was rear ended by some kids in Ocho Rios (just some very minor stuff) and we got out to get the driver info etc. and drove to the police station to file a report and was informed by the police that stopping was ill advised due to the high crime esp. after dark. Fortunately our CC covered the damages.
Have fun, it's a beautiful island.
