40 miles outside of Negril - so about an hour drive?
Any info or experience would be appreciated.

Is this the same as roaring river?
Irine...it's not the same as Roaring River.
Rob and I have been there a couple of times over the years and really enjoyed ourselves...but it had/has(?) been closed for some time.
While it was a gorgeous area and the water was nice & refreshing...I can't say I agree with Boniqua Riu about bottling my own water & drinking it...a lot of washing & bodies in there...including a few cows once in awhile...lol. :eek-new:
I'm not sure if it had a period it was closed, if so I was never aware. It currently is open I was there last week. Yes, there is a lot of bathing going on like most rivers lol. But bathing is forbidden in the top section if you climb up to it. It is for bottling water.
I might be dating myself here, but many years ago there was a place called Benjie's. I was never there but many people talked about it back in the day. It was just below Roaring River and if I can remember, it was described as a lazy river, nature walk, and a small restaurant. I remember people talking about spending the whole day there. I wonder if this is the old Benjie's and maybe even Steven is a descendant of Benjie himself? Rob, your thoughts.
Benji's was a chill place never the same after he moved to Florida.Steve's is a great place to chill been there a few times and really enjoyed the laid back feel there.
