Saint James, Jamacia

St. James is a suburban parish, located on the north-west end of the island of Jamaica. Its capital is Montego Bay (derived from the Spanish word manteca (lard) because many wild hogs were found there, from which lard was made). Montego Bay was officially named the second city of Jamaica, behind Kingston, in 1981, although Montego Bay became a city in 1980 through an act of the Jamaican Parliament. The parish is the birthplace of the Right Excellent Samuel Sharpe (died 1833), one of Jamaica's seven National Heroes.

Agent Recommendation

Booked a group trip through Lucia. Lucia worked her magic and was awesome to work with. During this time her patience with me and dealing with air canada was remarkable. I recommend Lucia to anyone, she put 110% into what she does. Thank you so very much for all you did Lucia. I can’t wait to tell you all about our trip and talking to you for future trips!
