Moon Author's Review
The road west of Port Antonio runs along the coast, cutting inland occasionally through several small towns including St. Margaret’s Bay, Hope Bay, and Buff Bay before reaching the border with St. Mary just east of Annotto Bay. The region is characteristically lush with fruit vendors and roadside shops intermittently along the road. Apart from Somerset Falls on the eastern edge of Hope Bay, the area is void of developed tourist attractions, but the sparsely populated coastline is in itself enticing; for the adventurous looking for secluded beaches, there are great opportunities for exploring around Orange Bay.
From Buff Bay, the B1 heads inland, climbing past Charles Town into the Blue Mountains and affording great views. This is the route on which Blue Mountain Bicycle Tours operates.
