Itinerary
Situated on the South coast of Jamaica in the Parish of St Elizabeth, the Black River Safari is significant to the overall balance of the country’s eco-system. A tour on this nature lovers paradise will take you three miles up the river and back. The natural beauty of the milieu will mystify the mind like never before. The over 100 species of beautifully plumed birds that made the Black River Safari home will always seems to bring one’s mind closer to how great creation is. However, perhaps the most famous residence of the Black River Safari are the endangered crocodiles.
The YS Falls are 120 foot tall and cascade over seven levels. Steps have been built up the side of the falls so visitors can view the falls without getting wet. If you'd prefer a more interactive experience there are natural pools at the bottom of each level of the falls, lifeguards on the site will let you know which pools are safe to swim in. One pool features a rope swing where you can swing "tarzan-style" in to the water below. For a more relaxing swim there is also a 4 foot deep pool at the bottom of the falls which is fed by natural springs.

Enjoyed both experiences. The falls were beautiful, less touristy. The boat tour allowed us to see the crocodiles and learn a bit of history.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed both the falls and the boat tour. It’s great to know you appreciated the beauty and tranquility of the falls, as well as the opportunity to see crocodiles and learn some history on the boat tour. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
We had a great time. Our driver picked us pick right on time. He safely drove us 1st to the Black River Safari where we enjoyed the boat tour. Next we went to YS falls. That was the best!! We had our own guide who took us up the falls. Nice guy guided just the 4 of us up the falls. He carried my phone and took alot of pictures of along the way. Not as touristy as Dunn River Falls. I highly recommend this tour.
Thrilled to hear you had a great time on the tour! It's fantastic that your driver was punctual and ensured a safe journey. The personalized experience at YS Falls with a dedicated guide and fewer crowds sounds wonderful. Thank you for recommending this unique tour!
