Margaritaville in Ocho Rios is one of a franchise of excellent beachfront bar and grill attractions created by multi-millionaire Jimmy Buffet. They have somehow been able to maintain a high standard and yet keep the feel, rustic and unforced.
Margaritaville is a lounger’s or thrill-seeker’s paradise so choose one or sample both: everything is available here.
Margaritaville Ocho Rios is located conveniently in the heart of Ocho Rios, across from Ocho Rios Bay Beach in Island Village. It is a moderate 1hr and 32min drive by car from Montego Bay’s Donald Sangster International Airport, and is just steps away from the Ocho Rios Cruise Ship Pier.
Enjoy a swim in the refreshing, azure Caribbean Sea, or enter their huge swimming pool by plunging from atop the 100ft slide. Or, if you’re feeling more like exploring, then take a Catamaran or Glass-Bottom boat ride.
Margaritaville is a family friendly experience in the day. At night, it’s more suited for the beat-driven partygoer with world famous DJ’s and their notorious signature Margaritas in abundance.
