Port Antonio is in Portland parish in the north-eastern part of Jamaica. With a population of approximately 13,000 inhabitants, this seaside town is the capital of the parish and the third largest port in the country.

The region enjoys a hot and humid climate. The temperature aggregates at 30°C throughout the year. While there is rainfall throughout the year, the maximum rainfall is from September to November.

Until the end of the nineteenth century, Port Antonio was a small coastal town. The plantation of bananas and its shipping brought about prosperity to the region.
