Inland from Ocho Rios

Attractions

From Ocho Rios, Milford Road (A2) heads south from the main intersection by Turtle Park and uphill along the steep, winding route through Fern Gully. A few roadside vendors sell crafts in the cool shade of the wider corners. The road exits in Colgate and continues on to Bromley, Walkerswood, and then Moneague before reaching Faith Pen just before the border with St. Catherine. From the main intersection in Moneague, the A1 heads to St. Ann's Bay, passing through Claremont. A left at the intersection in Claremont leads to Nine Mile. Staying on the A1 past Claremont will take you through Green Park, where the road splits. By taking a left at the Y intersection you reach Brown's Town, where the road meets the B3, which runs from May Pen through Cave Valley, Alexandria, and from Brown's Town to Runaway Bay on the North Coast. The region is known as the Dry Harbour Mountains. Brown's Town is the closest town of any size to the Bob Marley Mausoleum in Nine Mile and is famous for its bustling market. Cave Valley is a small community along the Clarendon border, which has a bustling Saturday market where livestock is sold.

The Bob Marley Mausoleum

The Bob Marley Mausoleum (9am- 5pm daily, US$25 adults, US$13 ages 5-11) is one of Jamaica’s most popular tourist sites, drawing scores of fans to pay their respects to the late, great King of Reggae. Arriving in Nine Mile, the Cedella Marley basic school looms in red, gold, and green splendor just before the Marley family home. Outside the official gated parking area, countless hustlers offer ganja and parking, in hopes of luring visitors to spend a few bucks outside the sanctioned attraction.
