The Montego Bay Marine Park is located on the north coast of Jamaica and encompasses the entirety of Montego Bay's seafront. The park is 15.3 square kilometres, and is measured by the high-tide mark on land, and extending to the 100 metre depth at sea. The eastern boundary of the park is Tropical Beach (adjacent to the Sangster International Airport). The western boundary is Rum Bottle Bay, a small point close to the Great River.
The Marine Park hosts a diverse environment, including mangrove forests and islands, white sand beaches, river estuaries, seagrass beds and corals, not to forget all the animals and people that call this place home.
The map above indicates the marine park boundaries in red.
