I went there with my wife and four friends, and had a great time. We swam in crystal-clear water and took a guided tour through the falls. A highlight was jumping down in a hole and landing in an cave pool. We also climbed through a waterfall into a hidden cave.

Reach falls is a very cool spot and usually not as crowded as Dunn's River Falls in Ochie. If you visiting Port Antonio it is a short and easy place to get to. Enjoyed jumping off the waterfall into the large pool. Sunday is a good day to go as there aren't too many people there.

Go early,we had the falls to ourselves with our guide who took many pictures. Being seniors we still easily navigated currents during swimming and diving under and up into a cave. ,...Great Experience! Debbie & Neal

One of the highlights of our short stay in Jamaica. Great natural beauty and an adventure for those who are at least modestly physically fit (if you can go down and up the initial 100 steps you can enjoy at least part of it). Wear a bathing suit and lightweight rubber-soled shoes good for walking on rocks (not flip-flops), and... More

Loved the stunning natural beauty and swimming in the falss at the bottom. Didn't like the mosquitos as much as they liked me!

While we were there, a school trip was going on so it wasn't as quiet as we had hoped. But by the time we got comfortable, we forgot all about them and we submerged in the beauty

The falls are beautiful but the guide who took us up the falls was looking after far too many people and that made it dangerous.

Smaller than the two aforementioned waterfalls in Montego Bay but here you don't get rushed (Dunns river) and there is a clear area for a proper swim (unlike YS falls). You get the chance to actually swim here, the water is deep enough and there is space to chill, without being crowded. In the main area you can jump from... More

If you're fit enough the guides will take you back along the river into an underground cave. It's nothing short of amazing!!! The water is clean and oh so refreshing. Go in the middle of the week to avoid crowds and bring water shoes and waterproof camera if you plan on taking the tour back. Remember to tip your guides... More

This place is magical, with a deep lush jungle environment and crystal clear/blue waterfalls. Definitely use a guide (we had Curtis) who will show you how to get into a cave behind the falls and how to jump into cool deep pools. No tourists around- except me I guess. Loved it.
