The Blue Lagoon, is the swimming hole just outside Port Antonio in Jamaica where Brooek Shields was shipwrecked with Christopher Atkins in the film of the same name, The Blue Lagoon, in the 1980’s.

It is a large, beautiful cove with deep waters, of a gorgeous emerald-green and azure coloured water.  Rain is moderate throughout the year, falling fairly evenly and the temperatures tend to be around 38C (86F) in the day and 20C (68F) at night.

The waters are around 56 m (185 feet) deep and the cove was created by underground mineral springs fed from the Blue Mountains - you can even watch as the bubbles surface to the ground.  Whilst swimming you will feel streams of warm and streams of cold water and will feel like the only person on earth.

On the banks, sufficiently far enough away, there is a dive shop that rents out kayaks and scuba diving equipment and a restaurant.  You can also swim in the nearby Somerset Falls, which is a short stroll away.  You could even take a canoe trip down there.  Jamaica is a truly luxury holiday destination and the Blue Lagoon is one of its relatively unknown attractions, well worth a visit.
