The Jamaica Carnival, which runs until late April, is a fusion of music, costumes, color, food, rum and dance, attracting many tourists from around the world.
The festivities officially began last month but the attractive proposals continue, among them the one of the 22nd with the annual carnival of Ocho Rios, on Easter Monday, and the one of the 28th with a parade of bands along Road March streets on Sunday of Carnival.
Donovan White, Jamaica's Director of Tourism, said travelers go to the Caribbean island to enjoy a unique experience and are immediately attracted by the offers, adding that activities have increased for this season.
These celebrations attract more than 100,000 people to the streets, and the National Carnival March represents more than a parade, a competition in which thousands of people wear colorful costumes and dance to the rhythm of music.
Jamaica's Carnival takes place mainly in downtown Kingston, in the tourist areas of Ocho Rios and Montego Bay.
On this island of striking rhythms such as reggae, along with soca, calypso and dancehall, the carnival festivities are a tourist attraction that attracts travelers from many countries each year.
Although France and the Netherlands have shared the island since 1648, St Martin has also been occupied by Spain and Britain.
