Dunn’s River Falls
Considered one of Jamaica’s national treasures, this 960-foot-tall waterfall in Ocho Rios continuously renews itself from deposits of travertine rock. This comes from the calcium carbonate from the river flowing over the falls. Additionally, small, dome-shaped cataracts can be found within nearby limestone caves.
