Ocho Rios Triple Play: ATV, Zipline, Horseback & Waterfall Adventure
Combine ATVs, a rainforest zipline, horseback-to-the-sea and waterfall swims into one full-day run from Ocho Rios. This trip stitches geology, plantation-era history and local flavor into a practical, action-packed island outing.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear water-capable footwear
Choose closed-toe trail shoes or sturdy water shoes — the falls and Blue Hole have slippery limestone and uneven footing.
Bring a small dry bag
Protect phones, wallets and a change of clothes; pockets will get wet on horseback and at the falls.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Five to eight hours of activity in tropical heat requires regular water and short rests between activities.
Follow guide briefings
Guides set safe lines for zipline, ATV limits and the best path up Dunn’s River — stick to their instructions.

Conservation Note
High visitor use can stress freshwater sites; use reef-safe sunscreen, avoid soaps in pools and follow guide directions to reduce erosion and protect aquatic life.
The north shore’s villages grew around deep harbors and sugar plantations; Rio Bueno served early mariners and later became a shipping point in the colonial bauxite era.
