Historic Falmouth Cruise Port Tours and Tickets

The Luminous Lagoon in Jamaica glows due to microscopic organisms called dinoflagellates, which are a type of plankton that produce natural light through bioluminescence when disturbed, creating a magical blue-green glow. This is one of five places in the world with this type of lagoon but this one in Jamaica is the only one that is accessible to humans and the one that shines the brightest. This is one of Jamaica’s top selling tour and an experience you won’t have anywhere else.

While in Jamaica, take a day trip to the Blue Hole, a paradise in the hills of the White River Valley. This full-day tour from Falmouth starts with a scenic drive into the rainforest-covered hills to reach the natural pools and waterfalls of the Blue Hole. Swim in one or more of the pools, scramble around the waterfalls, or take a swing on a Tarzan rope.

Ideal for first-time visitors, this 6-hour shore excursion provides an overview of Jamaican history and culture. Departing Falmouth, you’ll stop at Columbus Park, on open-air museum that commemorates the landing of Christopher Columbus,  before continuing to Nine Mile for the Bob Marley Experience. Visit the birthplace and final resting place of the legendary singer and feast on Jamaican jerk chicken for lunch. Port pickup and drop-off are included.

Avoid the hassle of seeking out taxis by pre-booking this transfer service from your Montego Bay hotel to the Luminous Lagoon, a brackish lagoon filled with phosphorescent plankton that glow when the water is agitated. Your driver will take you from your hotel to the lagoon, where you'll get the chance to take a group boat ride (for an additional fee), while your driver waits for you on the shore.

Experience Jamaica's aquatic attractions by day and by night. Float down the scenic Martha Brae River on a bamboo raft, and swim among the enchanting natural glow of the Mystic Luminous Lagoon. Soak up local culture, too, as you visit a medicinal herb garden, tour the historic town of Falmouth, and end the day with a Jamaican beach party.
