🏨Where to stay

⚠️Tips & warnings
Book the Luminous Lagoon tour for a moonless night in advance — the glow fades significantly on bright moonlit nights.
📍 On the ground
Getting around: Thirty minutes east of Montego Bay; the modern cruise terminal walks directly into the historic town centre.
Halal & prayer places: No declared options — the nearest genuine halal source is relatively nearby Montego Bay.
Local safety: A small, quiet town dominated by day-tripping cruise visitors; safe within the central historic route.
Cost figures: 2026 prices: the night-time Luminous Lagoon tour ~$40–50, a historic walking town tour ~$15, a local meal $6–12.
