About this experience

Campsites in Black River offer riverside and coastal camping grounds in Jamaica's southwestern parish of St. Elizabeth. These sites provide direct access to the Black River and nearby mangrove wetlands, with basic amenities for tents and small RVs. Campers can expect a quiet, rural setting with opportunities for birdwatching and boat tours.

What to expect

  • Pitch your tent on grassy plots within 50 metres of the Black River's edge, with fire rings and picnic tables provided.
  • Shared bathroom blocks with cold-water showers and pit latrines are standard; no hookups for electricity or water are available.
  • Guided canoe trips along the river run 2 hours and include sightings of American crocodiles and herons, with life jackets and paddles supplied.
  • Sites suit self-sufficient campers with their own cooking gear, drinking water, and insect repellent; no on-site shops or restaurants exist.
  • Nightly rates range from US$10 to US$15 per tent, payable in cash to the on-site caretaker, who also sells firewood.
  • The dry season from December to April offers the most stable weather, with daytime temperatures around 30°C and cooler nights.
