Private YS Falls and Black River Safari from Runaway Bay
Overview
Explore the South Coast of Jamaica on this private, full-day tour from Runaway Bay. This scenic sightseeing adventure travels to the famous YS Falls, an attraction highlighted by a cascading, 7-tiered waterfall. There is also an expansive wading pool, exciting canopy rides which careen down the alley high above the falls, and river tube rides — all with spectacular views of the surrounding area.
