Blue Lagoon
Made famous by 14-year-old Brooke Shields in the film
Blue Lagoon, the sheltered cove is one of the most scenic
spots in Jamaica, and is Port Antonio's most celebrated attraction.
It is fed by underground mineral springs, and is believed by many
to be bottomless, although it is estimated to be about 185 feet
(56m) deep. Surrounded by steep, green hillsides, the Blue Lagoon
is a wonderful place to swim if one chooses to ignore the tales of
sea monsters deep below the surface that are circulated by
locals.
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.
