Tourist Guide Ocho Rios
Ocho Rios is located in the Saint Ann Parish in the northern part of Jamaica. This seaside town with a population of approximately 16,000 inhabitants is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Jamaica.
Ocho Rios experiences a hot and humid climate typical to rest of the country. It is sunny throughout the year with barely any seasonal variations in temperature. The average annual temperature is 23°C.
For centuries, Ocho Rios was a sleepy village like many others along the northern coast of Jamaica. The deepening and broadening of its pier attracted many trading ships to the area.
In the 1960s, Ocho Rios began to be developed as a modern tourist destination. This has been largely due to planned exploitation of its natural treasures supported by relevant infrastructure.
