Of course, the spa at Milk River is the biggest attraction, but not far away is the famous Farquhar's Beach (commonly called "the beach" by locals).

 

Farquhar's Beach is actually a bay enclosed by a seasonal sand bar that separates the small saline lake from the open sea. Here you can buy lobster, shrimp or fish from the boats that come in intermittently during the day, but the thrilling find in the area are ancient Taino caves.

 

In these caves, pottery shards line the floor and centuries-old paintings on the cave walls add life and create a connection to the people who once inhabited this island.

 

Please do not remove items from or desecrate the caves; they stand on Taino holy ground and are part of Jamaica's delicate archaeological heritage.
