Montego Bay Itinerary - Tours and Activities

Updated: Sep 1

Montego Bay or MoBay is Jamaica's second largest city and a major tourist destination. It is booming with all-inclusive resorts, restaurants, attractions, beaches and nightlife. It is also a major port of call for cruise ships. This tropical paradise is suited for all types of travelers. It has great cuisine for the foodies, beautiful beaches for the loungers, great night life for the parties, and exciting activities for the adrenaline junkies. Detailed below is my extensive collection of things to do while in MoBay. If you'd like to spend time outside of MoBay, you can check out things to do in Ocho Rios and Negril.


Travel Tip: The immigration and customs lines at the airport can be a nightmare most times. To save yourself time and stress, I recommend checking out the fast track services offered by Club Mobay.
