Mayfield Falls
The 22 mini-cascades and numerous swimming holes that make up
the Mayfield Falls in the low-lying Dolphin Head Mountains make a
memorable day trip from Negril. The falls are reached through an
intriguing maze of country roads, and are difficult to find
independently, so an organised tour is advised. Tours offer guided
walks through bamboo-shaded cool water holes and splashing falls.
It is essential to wear a swimsuit and to bring mosquito repellent.
Some parts of the walk through the area involve natural whirlpools;
in others, blasts of water hit you from the rocks. There is an
underwater cave to swim through, smooth rockslide areas and mini
cliffs to dive from. This natural water park is edged and overhung
with bamboo, flowers, vines, trees and shrubbery. Jamaican dishes
are available at the eatery at the entry point.
Information & Facts
Language
The official language of Jamaica is English but a local
patois is also spoken, a mixture of English, Spanish, and various
African languages.
Money
The Jamaican Dollar (JMD) is divided into 100 cents. The island
is well supplied with ATMs, banks and bureaux de change. Banking
hours are usually Monday to Thursday from 9am to 2pm, and Friday
from 9am to 4pm. Cambio exchange offices are found throughout the
country, open later than banks and often offering better exchange
rates. Retain receipts as proof of legal currency exchange.
Exchange bureaux at the airports and hotels also offer better rates
than banks. Major credit cards and travellers cheques are widely
accepted. Both cash and travellers cheques are best taken in US
Dollars.
