Why Visit Montego Bay

Montego Bay all-inclusive resorts cluster around Rose Hall and Ironshore, a short transfer from the island's main airport and Jamaica's easiest first trip. Because the main international airport is right here, Montego Bay has the shortest transfers and the widest choice of resorts on the island, from big family complexes to adults-only escapes. Rose Hall adds two championship golf courses and a famous great house, while the Hip Strip brings restaurants and Doctor's Cave Beach. It is the convenient, do-it-all base, with Negril and Ocho Rios both within a day's reach.

Essential info for Canadian travellers

  • Passport: A valid Canadian passport is all you need — no visa required for tourist stays up to 90 days.

  • Immigration form: Complete Jamaica's free online immigration/customs form (C5) within 5 days before you fly.

  • Travel insurance: Provincial health plans do not cover medical care in Jamaica. Comprehensive travel insurance is essential.

  • Power & plugs: Jamaica uses 110V with Type A/B plugs — the same as Canada — but at 50Hz, so leave sensitive appliances at home.

  • Time zone: Jamaica runs on Eastern Standard Time (EST) year-round — same as Toronto in winter, one hour behind in summer.
