Overview
Enjoy Jamaica's rich natural wonders, beach scenery, and lunch on an action-packed outing that includes a river tube ride, plus light entertainment and food and drinks at Bamboo Beach Club Falmouth. After a short safety briefing at the tubing river, you'll hop on an inner tube for a journey downstream. Glide across mild rapids surrounded by greenery, traveling as the Spanish once did when they arrived in Jamaica.
Your river guide will entertain you until the end of your journey when the river runs into the Caribbean Sea. The flow of the river varies which can affect the duration of the float down the river. Then head to Bamboo Beach Club Falmouth and enjoy reggae tunes by a DJ and the sunny ambiance of the Caribbean shoreline. You'll be treated to a selection of beverages including rum punch and lemonade. Plus enjoy a tapas-style lunch served beachside featuring a menu of jerk chicken, plantains, salt fish and ackee, rice, banana fritters, and more.
Watch light entertainment, including line dancing and cocktail demonstrations. Dancing in the morning, drinking cocktails at noon, and taking it "cool" is Bamboo Beach Club's philosophy. This is your day to soak in all the sun and fun in Jamaica.
