Embrace the Serenity of YS Falls
As the morning mist gently lifts from the lush Jamaican landscape, there’s no better way to start your post-holiday relaxation than with a visit to the breathtaking YS Falls.

The YS Falls Adventure is available from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, offering ample time to soak in the beauty of the falls and perhaps take a refreshing dip in the cool waters. For those seeking a bit more thrill, the canopy zipline tour and river tubing rides are a must-try. As you wander through the estate, take a moment to enjoy a leisurely lunch at the on-site restaurant, surrounded by the tranquil sounds of nature.
“10/10 driver and experience - Honestly couldn’t fault the experience and Andre (our driver). He was more than accommodating to all of our requests, made sure we were safe and having a good time, not to mention his humour, we were honestly all laughing the whole time.” - Reviewed on 2023-06-26
Discover the Mysteries of the Black River
After a morning of relaxation, embark on a journey through Jamaica’s largest navigable river with the Black River Safari tour. Available from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, this 1.5-hour boat tour takes you through the South Coast’s stunning wetlands. Glide past towering Red Mangrove trees and keep an eye out for the rare American Crocodile and over 100 species of exotic birds. The calm waters and rich biodiversity make this a photographer’s paradise. As you drift along, you’ll witness local fishermen skillfully catching fresh crabs, sharing the river with the crocodiles. This immersive experience is a perfect blend of adventure and tranquility, offering a unique glimpse into Jamaica’s natural beauty.
“Great excursion - We had a wonderful time with Demar. We wanted to only go to black river and pelican bar. We decided at the last minute on the excursion so we called at 8 am and they were able to pick us up at 10 am! Demar was knowledgeable, patient and accommodating. I would recommend to anyone!” - Reviewed on 2023-03-30

Enjoy a cold beer, fresh fried fish, and the laid-back vibes as you soak in the panoramic views.

Whether you’re sunbathing, swimming, or simply enjoying the live reggae music, the Pelican Bar is the perfect spot to end your day in Treasure Beach.
“Appleton, YS fall, Floyd’s Pelican Bar - OMG Demar is on point. We spent a long day with Demar. We toured Appleton Rum Estates, YS FALLS, and Floyd’s Pelican Bar. Truly an amazing day. Demar kept us informed on what to expect, as well as helped us with other things to do in Negril. This is an experience not to be missed and Demar is the driver you want.” - Reviewed on 2022-12-21
