– with golden beaches and ‘fountain of youth’
White sand beaches, crystal blue seas and year-round heat are just a few of the reasons why Norse Atlantic Airways added Caribbean gem Jamaica to its route map.
Jamaicans are known for their laidback lifestyle, and drifting along the slow-moving Martha Brae river is a perfect way to emulate this — viator.com has a number of tours.
Dunn's River Falls are undoubtedly Jamaica’s best-known tourist attraction and a national treasure.

The island is home to some of the world’s most stunning beaches, its most famous being the serene Seven Mile Beach in Negril.

Marley also has a cocktail and shot named after him. They recreate the Rasta flag's red, yellow and green by layering grenadine, pineapple juice or banana liqueur, plus rum.
