YS Falls

Ys Falls in Jamaica is more than just a waterfall — it’s a full countryside experience. The journey begins with a scenic jitney ride through beautifully manicured fields, where you’ll see grazing horses and cattle along the way. Once there, visitors can swim in the cool cascading falls and relax in three additional freshwater pools. With comfortable lounge chairs and an open-air restaurant serving delicious lunch options, Ys Falls offers the perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and natural beauty

Beautiful and so serene. The waterfalls and hot springs make for a very relaxing time. The entire park is very luscious and green, it’s so relaxing and peaceful. Not as crowded when we went. You access to the entire park, not just the waterfalls. So you could walk around, get in the water and just spend your entire day here. I really enjoyed it. I booked through a tour company so I’m not sure how the experience is if you go by yourself.

I had a wonderful time with family there. It was relaxing and beautiful. I zip lined across the falls and Patrick and Gerard were amazing making it so much fun. A must go

The river was running fast, and was brown due to rain. However, it was still so beautiful!!! When you get to the gate, you pay admission, then ride a bus to the falls. Once there, theres a gift shop with small lockers available for $5. But once you open it, you have to take your items or pay another $5 to keep it. There are also changing rooms, bathrooms, and places to sit. Overall a very nice place, with the most beautiful scenery.

I absolutely loved this place! Our guides were fantastic! It’s amazing to jump off the rope swing. Very freeing. Many locals which made me feel I was having a more authentic cultural experience. There’s two mineral water pools to play or swim in before entering the falls. 15 dollar water shoes, can also rent them for 10! The staff was lovely and helpful. We had family with us from ages 1-84 and everyone had a good time. Highly recommend!

We only got about 1-1.5 hrs here. Would reccomend spending the whole day here. Admission fee of 22.00. Tourist trap but worth it if you plan to spend the whole day there. They have a pool below of natural fresh water from the falls with pool chairs and lifeguard etc. so you can spend time swimming/ relaxing/ playing in the falls. Lots of local plants/ gardens/ animal life like snails. YS falls has about 3 tiers and good supply of gushing water. You can’t get to the top most tier walking. They only let you go up to the 2nd tier. However, on the 2nd tier/ pool, there are two ropes. One that you can swing and jump off of from a platform (they tell you when to jump) and a 2nd one that you can also jump off of into more shallow water or just swing on it. I was told it is less popular so less crowded than Dunns River falls which is nice. The attendants were really helpful in helping us take photos, helping us walk through the falls (had us join hands together for safety). Small gift shop but overpriced items. You can do zip lining or tubing for additional fees. Seemed like ziplining was an additional 60.00. Would definitely go again

The falls and park are breathtaking. Well manicured lawns with park benches and cabanas. You can take your own food and drink. There are steps that run along the falls for those who wish not to walk the falls but still want to view it or keep up with loved ones doing the climb. There are two pools at the lower level everyone can enjoy, with pool chairs you can use without additional cost. There are lifeguards on duty throughout the park. Please wear water shoes as the pool has pebbles. Unfortunately, if it rains the falls can be a bit murky. However, you can still do the climb if you wish, as well as the pool will be nice and clear just the same. We will definitely return for the zip-line experience and hopefully when the falls are crystal clear.

YS Falls is one of the premier falls in Jamaica, and with good reason. It’s one of the most professionally run establishments I’ve been to in the country. Everything is orderly, on time, well maintained and very reasonably priced. The falls is beautiful and has lifeguards at every level. There is a pool at the base of the falls, picking tables about the grass, and even food being sold. There is zip lining and rope swings. In terms of crowds, I recommend going early. By midday there will be hundreds of people milling about. AVOID holidays, as it will be unbelievably busy.
