Konoko Falls, Ocho Rios

Had an absolutely amazing time here! One of my favorite spots to chill and climb the falls. Please ensure you wear shoes with grip with climbing the falls. You need to check out here if you haven’t. Friendly staff and it’s only $1,500 for adults.

Beautiful place for photography as it has gorgeous views, botanical garden, aviary and various animals to interact with. The food was quite good and most of the staff was quite friendly. It is a good place to go with groups. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the various flora and fauna in the botanical garden. However, the place lacked the necessary bathroom facilities and had no changing rooms, so the bathroom was the only area available for changing your clothing. Certain areas were in need of repair, such as some railings on the steps that led to the bottom of the falls that were barely attached and shaking, as well as one on the walkway to the lookout area was broken. Some areas on the steps were somewhat steep, which you had to maneuver carefully, which made climbing down and up the stairs a task for both the young, old and not so in shape. There were mainly two swim spots to choose from on the falls; one at the top that was usually crowded and the other way at the bottom of the falls below the 200+steps. Though there were some little spots here and there, one would have to climb either up or down the falls to get to it. There was a pool area at the top near the garden area, but you would have to pay an extra $500JMD to rent a life jacket to swim in it, as it did include an 8ft deep area. So if you didn't walk with extra cash, you couldn't enjoy that area. The card machine at the food area was not working the day I visited, so the use of my card was out of the question and it also closed off at 4pm and so you were not allowed to purchase anything after that, which was strange to me being that people were still at the park in abundance and would probably still need some form of refreshment. Food service took a while for my group as some people had to wait over an hour to get their meal. Overall if you love taking beautiful pictures, cooling off in the rushing waters of the waterfalls and sightseeing, this would be an ideal place to visit friends and family.

It's a little excursion that packs a lot of history of the island and it's beauty in a day. There's a lot of walking up and down hills on uneven footing, but our tour guide took the time to ensure all were safe. A surprise of local wildlife during the tour was a fun twist!

Such an unforgettable family memory. We climbed the falls with our teenage grandchildren and their parents. There are cooling pools on the way up and even a small cave. You'll need water shoes with grip and don't forget a gratuity. This grandma with 4 joints replaced made it to the top (where there is an amazing view and lush gardens) with the help of their outstanding staff.

Great for family recreational activities, a little of everything; mini garden, mini zoo, mini museum with things used in the past and of course the lovely falls. Very beautiful lawns for picnic... Superb scenery for picture taking...Be prepared to exercise; lots of steps to go down to get to the falls...
