I think a 4 year old would be OK and might have fun swimming in the holes if you stay with them. They do have life jackets (but I'm not sure if some are that small). The walk to the holes has roots and narrow, steep stairs in places, so you'd have to hold their hands. They probably could do the jump, but could just enjoy it with you and swim around. The water is cooler than the ocean, so they may not enjoy the swimming. There are folks smoking pot and drinking around, and that might dissuade you.

Everything was pretty dead after covid so not alot of excursions where up and running from the hotel. We got lucky and met Mr. Devroy, he is a licensed independent driver w.a clean car and excellent knowledge of the area, he seriously made this trip amazing. He knew all the hot spots and drove us anywhere we wanted to go. With very competitive rates I will never do hotel shuttle tour again, having your own driver gives you freedom to come and go at whatever time you wish. Contact Mr. Devroy aka Mr. Seemore Payless when in Jamaica 876-432-1785 tell him San Diego sent you :)!!!!

Yes, you can take a taxi to Blue Hole and just pay the admission fee. We had a rental car and just drove ourselves. But - I highly recommend continuing past Blue Hole another 10 minutes to Island Gully Falls. It has more falls. Blue Hole is just one waterfall and swimming hole. Island Gully has multiple falls, cliffs to jump off and a rope swing. When you get to Blue Hole they'll try to tell you that it's also parking for Island Gully - it's not - keep going. The guides at Island Gully are wearing red shirts, the guides at Blue Hole are wearing blue shirts. But either way, for Blue Hole or Island Gully Falls, you can take a taxi and just pay the admission fee for a guide. I think we paid $60 admission for a family of 4, and then another $40 or $60 (can't remember) for the pictures. They had a guy follow our family and take pics. The Island Gully Falls experience was about an hour. Fun time. Hope that helps.

US $15 per person with tour guide in December 2019

There is like $20 or less entrance fee to blue hole. There is so much poverty in Jamaica that people expect tips. Lots of people are lined up at the blue hole to show you around just to get some tip.

Depends on the time of year. In the slow season, you can negotiate the price. We hired a car and driver $100/day.

Los costos NO son lo importante, lo que tenés que lograr es que la misma sea segura Las excursiones las deberías contratar en el hotel No hagan ninguna excursión solos

You can absolutely just show up but not all the Blue Hole Tour companies are reputable. Make sure you take a taxi all the way to the last company on the road (will have red shirts) and is called Island Gully. Others have felt pressure from their guides to tip (don't get me wrong you should tip but extreme pressure is not fun). Our guide with Island Gully was Xavier and he was fantastic, carried our cell phone through the falls and took over 100 pictures of us. Entry fee was $20 each and then I tipped him.

It definitely won’t be too cold no matter what time of year you go. It may feel a little chilly but you warm up quite quickly especially if the temp is high

Ciao....distano tutte due circa mezzoretta da Ocho Rios, secondo mè meritano di più le Dunn River Falls, più spettacolari ma calcola che per risalirle fino in cima con le scarpette per lo scoglio ci vuole circa un ora e mezza!!
