Good day, the cost for entry is $200 Jamaican dollars for adults and $100 JMD for children ages 4 - 12. If you do not have any Jamaica dollars, the cost is $3 US dollars for adults and $1 USD for children. Unfortunately, the Ocho Rios Bay Beach is currently closed due to the pandemic.

I think Tuesday Wednesday, most of the cruise ships dock in Ocho Rios Thursday through Sunday, I would avoid sandcastle hotel

Always a good idea.

Not a chance.remember this is a public beach and they frown on topless ladies.

I don’t think there is a restriction but people there stare a lot so I guess it’s more up to you. Anyway there is a hotel right behind the fence and people from out there can see the beach

You can walk to the beach in around 20mins, don’t know how much a taxi would be, but it’s not very far, keep walking through the town with shops etc until you reach a large car park with barriers go through here to the beach everyone has to pay to go onto the beach $3 each. If you would like fun, activities, food and music turn left, if you prefer a quite time turn right and walk along the beach until you reach a small hotel called rooms, they will rent you a bed fir $5 that includes using all facilities in the hotel ie pool washrooms, bar etc. We were there last week, it’s super friendly and this area is very safe. Hope that helps have a great time

You can certainly rent a sun lounger but I don't think there's wifi.

There is hot food available on the beach . When we were there you could get Jerk chicken and rice and peas
