THE LONGEST ZIPLINE IN THE ENTIRE CARIBBEAN REGION

She started feeding all the birds and putting hummingbird feeders out in the woods and moving them ever closer to her veranda. It took her six years to get the first bird to sit on her finger and drink sugar water from a vial, but being the fickle beasts they are they will now sit on anyone's finger.

FISHING ON THE NORTH COAST Barrett Adventures
Name: FISHING ON THE NORTH COAST WITH LOXLEY
Description: Fishing with Loxley is deep-sea fishing with a local twist.
This is for those who want to know how we do it here in the islands. You can go out on any coast in North America in a fancy boat with power chairs, electric reels and plenty of cold beer. We have cold beer, but the rest of the experience is old school Jamaica. We haul in the fish using hand lines, or a rod and reel depending on which bait they take. If you want an up close and personal experience with the denizens of the deep, this is your best chance. Everyone gets involved in hauling in a Marlin. Mahi Mahi are great eating and fun to catch. Bonito, if you run into a school of them, take all four lines at once and keep us all busy as they line up begging to bite on your lure. We hauled in 25 Bonito one afternoon recently. Kingfish, tuna and jack are waiting to make your acquaintance, too.

SNORKELING TOUR
AND/OR LOBSTER ON THE BEACH Barrett Adventures.
Name: SNORKELING TOUR
AND/OR LOBSTER ON THE BEACH
Description: This is a most extraordinary snorkelling tour, like none other that is offered in Jamaica.
Take a ride on The Lark to the Airport or Fish Pond reef and snorkel to your heart's content. This is no 15-minute dip in the sea. All of our clients will tell you that we let you snorkel for as long as you wish. These are both huge reefs with lots of colourful fish and interesting coral formations, eagle rays and even an occasional nurse shark (overgrown catfish, not aggressive). We feed the Sergeant-Major fish and others who come around us in a cloud. Plenty of fun for all ages.
If you are doing both snorkelling and Lobster on the Beach you can stay as long as you like at the reef and then come back to Whitehouse Beach and have fresh-caught lobster with all the trimmings cooked over an open fire, done to perfection by Loxley.
Lobster on the Beach is for groups of 6 or more. Have lunch or dinner on a very local beach, interact with our fishermen and have a great time eating our local lobster.
