What to do in Kingston

Kingston is referred to by many as the cultural capital of the Caribbean. Many of the most famous icons, products and symbols of the islands originate from Jamaica, and many of those originate from its capital. Think Reggae music, jerk sauce, Blue Mountain Coffee, pirates (thankfully, gone now) and the one and only Bob Marley, who lived in the city for nearly his entire adult life.

Speaking of Bob Marley, one thing that you simply must check out whilst in Kingston is the Bob Marley Museum. It is set up in the singer’s old home and represents the legacy that he left not only on the city, but on the entire world. Fans of his flock to the building so expect a crowd.

Just outside of the bustling city centre, there are numerous other places to visit, too. The world-famous Blue Mountain Coffee plantation can be found to the north of the city and tours of the site are available with prior booking. The plantation is also right near the National Park, which means you can discover the island’s varied wildlife and have a break from the busy city life following your tour.

After exploring the National Park, you’ll probably be hungry. Why not try out the national fruit of Jamaica, ackee? The local eateries are sure to have this creamy, mild fruit in stock for you to try, and if not, then you’ll just have to settle for jerk! Jerk-marinated meats are a staple of the Jamaican diet and something that your taste buds will definitely have to adjust to during your trip. The scotch bonnet peppers make this sauce incredibly spicy - not one for the faint of heart. There are also a lot of fish-based dishes here. Saltfish is particularly popular and is sure to be fresh from the harbour.

The small fishing village of Port Royal lies just across this harbour. Port Royal was once a hotspot for pirates, and they definitely weren’t as comical as Jack Sparrow. Nowadays, however, the quiet island offers a slow-paced retreat in the middle of the crazy Kingston vibes. Steeped in heritage, the island also provides the opportunity to see the “Sunken Pirate Island”, a large area of Port Royal that is sunken beneath metres of water after a horrific earthquake struck the town in the 1600s. The area is now a heritage site and great for sightseeing. Other heritage sites to visit during your stay include the National Heroes Park and Devon House.

Car hire

The best way to make the most out of Kingston is to hire a car for the trip. You could also walk around, but why not give yourself (and your feet) a break? You can hire a car quickly and easily for very affordable daily rates, and you’ll also get around more of the city than you would on foot.

To compare prices for car hire services in Kingston, check out our car hire tool. You can browse vehicles by price, model or requirement, and select your preferred pick-up and drop-off times. Once you’ve found your perfect package, call us on 0207 344 0101 and we’ll book everything for you.

And with that, we can almost guarantee you have all the information you need on booking flights to Kingston. However, if we haven’t convinced you that the area is right for you, then why not check out Montego Bay? MoBay, as the locals call it, is much more geared towards party lovers and general holiday-goes. It has a number of luxury hotels and resorts to stay in with stunning views of the Jamaican coast, plus much more leisurely activities available nearby.
