Geography Jamaica, a tropical island in the heart of the Caribbean, has a diverse and unique geography. Jamaica is a 146 mile long island with 4411 square miles of lush island. More than half Jamaica is mountains above 1000 feet high, making it an island with a very rugged terrain. While the mountains are mostly on the interior, the coastlines are flat beaches that stretch for as long as the eye can see. The northwest is a pitted landscape due to the many sinkholes that settled on the limestone surface. There are over 120 rivers that flow from the interior to the coast. Jamaica is believed to have been formed from volcanoes billions of years ago. Originally Jamaica was a rough rugged land, but eventually the climate and soil changed to provide conditions very suitable for the lush flora that can be seen today. Most of the plants except for pineapple, and guava were brought over by humans or bird droppings. There are over 3000 varieties of flowers can be found, including 800 species found only in Jamaica. The animal life, however is much plainer. There are rats, and mongooses, which are used to hunt the rats. There is also something known as the coney, a relative of the rat. There are also bats, crocodiles, and frogs. Far more impressive is the variety of birds on the island. There are over 200 species, ranging from the Doctor bird, to the brightly colored parakeets, parrots and finches. Since Jamaica has such lush plant and animal life, it figures that there is a lovely climate. There is an average of 77 inches of rain, mostly in October and May. This helps to the explain the many plant form that thrive there. The average temperature is 80 F, with a temperature below 50 F being considered frigid.

This could be attributed to many reasons including the fact that Jamaica is almost in the USA's backyard or Jamaicans have carried their history and culture wherever they may go and introduced it to the world or simply that it is the birthplace of music legend, Bob Marley. This island, the third largest in the Caribbean, is called the Land of Wood and Water and you only have to take one look at it to see why! Jamaica is very lush with 6 mountain ranges and 120 rivers including the famous Dunns River Falls. Like its Caribbean neighbours, Jamaica is a "melting pot" of people and cultures – hence its motto "out of many one people." Although the majority of the population is of African descent other ethnic groups represented are East Indian, Arabic, Caucasian and Chinese. Jamaica's diverse physical beauty makes it a unique island from the lush Blue Mountains famous for its coffee to the beaches, rivers, caves and waterfalls located on the island. We encourage you to explore the true beauty of Jamaica and choose a favourite spot in fact we have a few favourite areas!
