The best packing lists for Jamaica

Jamaica is hillier than the beach photos suggest. Waterfalls like Dunn's River are climbed barefoot or in grippy water shoes, river trips soak everything, and the Blue Mountains above 1,500 metres turn genuinely cool and often misty in the morning.

Good to know for Jamaica

One electrical quirk: 110 volts but 50 hertz, on sockets of types A and B. Anything with a motor or a clock may behave oddly; phone and laptop chargers will not care.

Rain arrives in two waves, in May and in October. Between those peaks, and from December to April, it stays mostly dry, with the heaviest humidity from June to November.

The Jamaican dollar is the currency, US dollars are widely accepted, and street stalls and route taxis need small change. Away from the beach people dress modestly, and swimwear stays by the water.
