The drive to Milk River Bath past Alligator Pond is incredible, the route carries you through the Long Bay Morass - an undisturbed 15 mile stretch closed in by mountains and made up of mangroves - this is a paradise for birds as well as Blue Crabs, African perch, fresh water tropical fish and crocodiles. This swamp is also the last refuge in Jamaica for endangered manatees.
Entering the Long Bay Morass you will feel you have left civilization far behind, the area is virtually uninhabited by people and you will rarely pass another car. It's a pristine area that begs for national park status.
Gut River - where a crystal clear river flows out of a rock cliff into the sea is a natural beauty spot. A spring here feeds a startlingly BLUE pond that is something to see - there is a 10-mile stretch of beach here where gia nt turtles from South America come to lay their eggs.
The Milk River Bath & Manatees Road Trip is a great late afternoon excursion perfectly capped by dinner at Little Ochie.
Milk River & Manatees Road Trip Cost: $115.00 Per Couple
