Beautiful beach, fun setting, FRIGID water. The admission price board at the entrance is interesting. Citizen prices are in $JA and foreigner prices are in $US (Quick math shows where they make their money. In addition, be ready give a mandatory respect to your guide afterward($10-20 will do), but that's just how it is there. It's a great place. You'll have a much better time if you know the drawbacks going in.

Dunn River Falls was the highlight of my cruise to Ocho Rios. While at the falls, my family had the opportunity to ride on a jet sky for a reasonable price. I would recommend Dunn River Falls to everyone!

Pretty Cool! I liked it a lot! A bit touristy. But worth the visit. Too bad everyone know about it. I think Jamaica is great. I like the people, music and the food - especially the curried goat!

I enjoyed the experience, however, it was to crowded. If you can, leave your "group" and walk by yourself. It is more enjoyable and you can actually hear yourself think. Watch out for the vendors, they will hardly take no for an answer. Overall it is a neat place.

As a natural wonder, Dunn's River Falls has got to be both one of the most aesthetically pleasing and accessible. By accessible I mean it is not too far from many of the Island's all-inclusive resort locations. And with a careful footing, and a little confidence you, too, can 'survive' Dunn's. (shirt logo) For those who are not too aware of it, you basically walk down a long and winding waterfall by foot. The waterfall leads to a beautiful secluded beach. The two caveats I'd offer are the following: One, the waterfall is not for the faint of heart- it's not really steep in terms of the actual steps you climb down- but it is very slippery, so you should have some good sandals or waterproof shoes, preferably ones that give you a good footing. Secondly, for those who do not like being bombarded by locals offering to sell their handicrafts, I suggest walking as fast as you can past the park entrance, since the way the park is arranged (not by chance I presume) all tourists are forced to walk through a long gauntlet of vendors who are experts at capturing your attention with all their 'cheap' handicrafts. And if you have to wait for a tourist bus- which incidentally is frequently late, presumably to allow you time to sample the local fares, beware the vendors. As cheap as their products seem, you may end up paying more than you bargained for, and trust me, you will be approached by many.

It was great... 8 years ago. Last time I was there the place was packed with tourists and looked absolutley stripped of its previous beauty. It was kind of sad. Now, on a brighter note, if you and your family are out vactioning and do not have much to compare it against, I think you'd find Dunn's River to be a great getaway. It is also rather well staffed, one family memebr lost his wallet in the river, 2 days later soemone from the park drove it over the hotel. Nice but not unique.

Jamaica is one of the most fun, beautiful, exotic places I have ever seen. The people are so laid-back. Dunn' River Ralls is so much fun! Its just beautiful and fun to play it. If you're looking for other things to do in Ocho Rios, try going horseback riding in the ocean. Its unforgettable. There is also white water rafting which i have not personally been on, but my brother went. No matter how cheesy or lame or run-down something looks, it will still be a great experience. Most places look run down in Jamaica, but thats part of the island charm. Go there, it is unforgettable!!

Dunn's River Falls is a great place to go and is pretty and it is a lot of fun to climb the falls but unfortunately it's not much of a secret anymore. Like Jamaica itself it's become overrun with tourists and crowded and dirty. I can't help but say you should still go because it is fun but I just wish the word had never gotten out.

Dunn's River Falls to me is Jamaica's most beautiful natural site. The water coming down is so spectacular. Jamaica in general is beautiful.

This spot exemplifies the beauty that can be found in nature. One of the most beautiful vacation spots in the Caribbean.

Dunn's River Fall is the best place in Jamaica. If you want to see the best beach you have to go there. It won't be the real Jamaican experience if you don't go to Dunn's River Falls.
