Ocho Rios Bay, Coastal bay on the northern coast of Jamaica
The waters of Ocho Rios Bay contain diverse marine life, including colorful tropical fish, sea turtles, and extensive coral reef formations.
During the colonial period, Ocho Rios Bay functioned as a Spanish trading port before developing into a major cruise ship destination in the 1960s.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing methods in Ocho Rios Bay, using handmade nets and small boats to catch fresh seafood daily.
The bay provides natural protection for vessels, with multiple docking facilities that accommodate both international cruise ships and local fishing boats.
The bay's limestone cliffs create natural underwater caves where marine researchers study rare species of nocturnal fish and crustaceans.
