The experience

The day starts with pickup from your hotel and a ride to Blue Hole, a natural limestone sinkhole fed by freshwater springs. The water runs deep blue and clear enough to see underwater caves and tunnels. You can climb the mini waterfalls that feed the pools, jump off rocks into the natural swimming holes, or float under the cascade itself. A certified lifeguard stays with the group, and your guide handles the logistics so you focus on the water.

After Blue Hole, you head to Reggae Hill, a private garden and restaurant along the White River. A complimentary chair waits for you by the water's edge, and you can stay there for the rest of the afternoon. The property has hundred-year-old trees, native plants, and a bar where the staff makes specialty cocktails with flair. Reggae music plays, and the hostesses and guides perform light entertainment. If you want to eat, the on-site restaurant serves nuevo-Caribbean dishes (jerk chicken, escovitch fish, king crab legs, lamb), and local beers and wines. You can order food and drinks to your chair or move to one of the cabanas. If time allows, there's a short shopping stop on the way back.
