The wording for tourists from the VisitJamaica.com site:
Non-residents visiting Jamaica for tourism purposes and staying within the “resilient corridor” (a defined geographical area designated for tourism purposes)
Note that based on health screening and risk assessment on arrival, persons may still be required to be tested at the airport or designated facility, if, for example, they are exhibiting symptoms or belong to a high risk group despite presenting a negative COVID-19 RT-PCR test certificate. In this case, they would await their test result in their hotel room. If the test is negative, they would remain at their hotel/resort within the “resilient corridor” under the “stay in zone” measure. As of August 7, 2020, they will be allowed to leave the hotel/resort to visit attractions within the resilient corridor.
Stay in zone–This measure applies only for tourist visitors who are staying in the “resilient corridor” designated for tourism purposes. Under this measure, persons are required to remain at their hotel/resort within the corridor for the duration of their stay until August 6, 2020. Effective August 7, 2020, tourists in the corridor can leave the hotel/resort to visit any amusement park, water park, or water attraction, certified by the Jamaica Tourist Board to be a COVID-19 resilient licensed attraction located within the corridor, while adhering to applicable protocols. Travel to and from the attraction must be on transportation licensed under the Tourist Board Act.
