Tourist Guide Moneague
Moneague is located in the Saint Ann Parish in the northern part of Jamaica. With a population of approximately 166,000 inhabitants, Saint Ann Parish is the largest parish of the country.
Since Moneague is located in the interiors, away from the coast, the climate is comparatively less hot. The town is located at the edge of the Moneague Lake. In 2006, excessive flooding from the lake caused large scale destruction in the town.
The economy of the parish is mainly agrarian in nature supplemented by bauxite mining. Emergence of Ocho Rios as a prime tourist destination has brought tourism into other parts of the parish as well.
Moneague’s location on the road between Kingston and Ocho Rios rapidly advanced its prosperity as many wealthy merchants used the town as a stopover.
