Begin your experience with a complimentary fruit drink and explore Miss Martha’s Herb Garden, which features a variety of medicinal Jamaican herbs. Purchase unique souvenirs at the on-site gift shops, enjoy refreshing drinks at the two service bars, and savor authentic Jamaican cuisine at the restaurant.
Then, board a 30-foot-long bamboo raft and set off on a 1-hour and 15-minute journey down the Martha Brae River. Relax as you float down the river, surrounded by lush greenery and the picturesque Jamaican countryside.
Learn about the history of the river, which was used to transport produce from Trelawny’s plantations to the port of Falmouth. Hear the legend of Martha Brae, a Taino witch who was tortured by Spanish settlers until she told them where gold was hidden along the river. Folklore recounts that she led them to the river, changed its course which drowned the settlers, and blocked the cave where the gold allegedly remains hidden.
