Description
Established forty years ago, Rafting on the Martha Brae boasts a complement of eighty five licensed and experienced raft captains. Thirty-foot long bamboo rafts are boarded from a concrete pier, under the supervision of a licensed dispatcher. Before climbing aboard the 30-foot bamboo raft, guests can visit “Miss Martha’s Herb Garden”, a presentation of Jamaica’s herbs renowned for their medicinal and healing properties.
The raft ride is operated over a three mile stretch of the beautiful Martha Brae river and lasts approximately one hour. Once on the raft, guests can learn about “The Legend of Martha Brae” or enjoy an exhilarating swim. The attraction has over the years played host to a number of celebrities including HRH Queen Elizabeth II, heavy weight champion Lennox Lewis, Chuck Norris, Dionne Warwick, Spike Lee, former NBA star Patrick Ewing, Jane Seymour of “Doctor Quinn- Medicine Woman” fame, Kenny Rodgers, the late Johnny cash and world 100 meter champion Usain Bolt.

Dal Pringle Is the Best Guide Ever
My wife and I came to Jamaica for our anniversary. We booked the bamboo rafting and we couldn't be happier to have a better tour guide to show us around the local areas. Very knowledgeable and definitely taught us a lot about Montego Bay Jamaica. Beautiful place with Beautiful people. We'll definitely be coming back for another trip. Thank you Dal Pringle for the tour. Make sure to tip your guide. ❤️🇯🇲🌴✨
