[ROCKY'S TAXI AND TOURS]

The Parish of St. Ann on the north coast is known as the "garden parish" because of its great beauty with lush, vibrantly hued foliage. Its parish capital is the market town of St. Ann's Bay. However the vacation development of this delightful parish has centred on the seaside town of Ocho Rios.

The name Ocho Rios, literally translated from the Spanish, means "Eight Rivers" but it could be a corruption of Las Chorreras, the waterfalls, because waterfalls are perhaps the most striking feature of the area.

In fact, Ocho Rios owes much of its fame to Dunn's River Falls, a much-photographed and much-climbed attraction. It is a joy to be in or swim underneath the refreshingly cool water of the falls, and great fun to make the climb to the top.

Another very beautiful attraction is Eden Falls at The Ruins restaurant and the picturesque white-sand beaches that ribbon water's edge along the town.
