Explore Historic Black River

Way Back When is a locally owned and operated heritage tour of

one of Jamaica’s most fascinating and

historically significant towns.

You don’t want to miss it!

Way Back When digs deep into the colourful past of Black River, a seaside town best known for its beautiful river, the fact that it was the first small town in Jamaica to be lit by electricity, and its connection with the notorious slave ship, Zong.

We’ll experience the flavour of Black River today as people go about their everyday business, in a town which has seen its fair share of ups and downs. As we walk (or drive) through the streets of the town, our exploration will uncover a lot about Jamaica’s past.

The Black River story is one worth telling, and hearing. So…..

Come walk with us!
