| The
Montego Bay Marine Park is Montego Bay,
Jamaica. It is a common misconception that the Park is just our office
at Pier 1. In fact, it is the entire
Montego Bay. It comprises 15.3 square kilometres, beginning at the
high-tide mark on land, and extending to the 100 metre depth at sea.
The eastern boundary is Tropical Beach, adjacent to Sangster International
Airport, and the western boundary is Rum Bottle Bay, a little point
close to the Great River. It is a very 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. |
