Moon Author's Review
Cane River meets the sea just before Bull Bay at Seven Mile, on the main road east of Kingston heading toward St. Thomas. The river is formed by the Barbeque and Mammee rivers, among smaller tributaries that run down the northern slopes of the Dallas Mountains. The falls were once the stomping ground of Three Finger Jack, a legendary Robin Hood–like cult figure who terrorized the planter class with kidnappings for ransom and murder. Almost 200 years later, the falls became a favorite cool-off spot for Bob Marley, who sang " . . . uppa Cane River to wash my dread, upon a rock I rest my head . . . " in the song, "Trench Town."
