Falmouth

Falmouth, a historic port town on Jamaica’s north coast, is a treasure trove of history, culture, and natural beauty. Founded in 1769, it became one of the wealthiest towns in the Caribbean during the sugar boom of the 18th century. Known for its Georgian architecture, Falmouth boasts buildings like the William Knibb Memorial Baptist Church and the old courthouse, which reflect its colonial past.

The town was also one of the first in the Western Hemisphere to have piped water, earning it the nickname “The Modern Metropolis of the West Indies.” Visitors can learn about Jamaica’s history of slavery and emancipation, as Falmouth was once a hub for the transatlantic trade. The nearby Greenwood Great House and Good Hope Estate offer glimpses into plantation life and the region’s fascinating heritage.

For nature enthusiasts, Falmouth is a gateway to excursions such as the famous Luminous Lagoon, where bioluminescent waters glow brilliantly at night. Visitors can also explore Martha Brae River by bamboo raft, enjoy snorkeling in the Caribbean Sea, or tour sugar plantations and rum distilleries. With its rich culture, vibrant markets, and historical charm, Falmouth offers something for everyone looking to immerse themselves in Jamaica’s unique blend of past and present.
