Fishermans Point

Fishermans Point is a hotel situated in Ocho Rios, one of Jamaica’s most beloved and visited destinations on the island’s verdant north coast. Jamaica is a place that gets under the skin — an island of extraordinary natural beauty, vibrant culture and an infectious warmth that keeps visitors returning year after year. Ocho Rios sits at the heart of the north coast, where the Blue Mountains meet the Caribbean Sea and the lush tropical vegetation drops down to a coastline of white sand beaches and crystal-clear water. For a Caribbean holiday with genuine character and natural drama, few destinations deliver quite like Ocho Rios.

Rooms and Facilities

Fishermans Point offers hotel accommodation in the heart of Ocho Rios, placing guests within easy reach of the town’s beaches, restaurants and attractions. The hotel’s position in this celebrated Jamaican resort town makes it a practical and appealing base for those who want to immerse themselves in the full Ocho Rios experience — from the beaches and water sports to the local culture, food and music scene that makes Jamaica so distinctive as a holiday destination. The Caribbean climate means warm, sunny days throughout the season, and the hotel is well placed to take advantage of everything this part of the island has to offer.

Jamaica and Nearby Attractions

Ocho Rios is built around a natural bay and offers a mix of resort amenities and genuine Jamaican life that sets it apart from more heavily packaged Caribbean destinations. The beaches in and around the town — Ocho Rios Bay Beach and Mahogany Beach — are wide, well-maintained and lapped by the warm, calm waters of the Caribbean Sea, making them ideal for swimming, snorkelling and simply relaxing under the Jamaican sun.

Dunn’s River Falls, approximately 5 km west of the hotel, is arguably Jamaica’s single most iconic attraction — a series of terraced limestone waterfalls that cascade 180 metres down to the sea, which visitors can climb in a guided chain with the help of local guides. It is a genuinely exhilarating experience that appears on the itinerary of almost every visitor to Ocho Rios, and rightly so. Beyond the falls, the north coast rewards exploration: Bob Marley’s birthplace at Nine Mile in the hills above St Ann is a powerful and moving pilgrimage site, while the Blue Mountains — rising to nearly 2,300 metres behind Kingston — offer some of the most spectacular scenery in the Caribbean. Kingston itself, the island’s capital, lies around 90 km to the south-east and is home to the Bob Marley Museum and a thriving arts and food scene that reflects Jamaica’s extraordinary cultural energy. For those heading west towards Montego Bay, the journey along the north coast road passes through some of Jamaica’s most beautiful countryside.
