> Ocho Rios is still a dump, and the sellers are very agressive. We did a plantation and Dunns River Falls tour. At both sites we were practically attacked by the vendors trying to sell us both legal crap and, of course, pot. I would never go back.

I guess I lucked out–I was actually by myself as I didn’t have the stamina to climb the falls, and I would think I would be more harassed. A couple of guys may have called out but left me alone when I ignored them.
