10 Free Things to do in Montego Bay That You Shouldn't Miss
While this Jamaican spring break favorite is great for party animals, it can also be surprisingly low key – if you want. Montego Bay has excellent duty-free shopping, vibrant nightlife, and calm waters. Browse the local handicrafts at the open-air Harbour Street market, or the "hip strip" shops of Gloucester Avenue. The underwater crevices of Widowmaker’s Cave offer an intricate diving experience. Float serenely down the Martha Brae River on a bamboo raft and let your troubles melt away under the sun.

We visited on a Saturday and there were quite a few people in and around the Church. Lots of history and remarkable elements including the old pipe organ, very old altar and pews, ornate carvings, stained glass, and the outside cemetery. Make a contribution and say a prayer when you're there.
5. Sam Sharpe Square
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 129 reviews
Cobblestone square in Montego Bay named after national hero Sam Sharpe and featuring the Cage, which used to be a jail for runaway slaves.
Reviewed By Clawboot - Rochester, United States
An amazing place in the heart of Montego Bay. To see the small cage where people were imprisoned, the memorial to Sam Sharpe and the Market Square where he was hanged. Also see the hustle and bustle of the city with street vendors and shops. We came here as part of a private tour with a driver and did not feel unsafe at all. In fact, there were police at the square.

Went there last week and it is a pretty decent Mall. We must say that we have never heard such good music at a mall before. The music kept us on the mall shopping and dancing. The music is better than the hotel we were staying. We even bought things we didn't need. We experienced great service at the royal shop and Gift zone and a few more. You should also check out the beautiful birds and take a pic with the donkey by the water wheel. The mall also had craft vendors there and they were not like the other craft vendors else where. They were very polite. It was indeed the highlight of our trip.

Good deals if you can barter, The hip strip is a long street so take plenty of water. We got some cracking deals for gifts for the family back home.
