Ocho Rios, Jamaica, is home to three Sandals properties offering this package: Sandals Ochi, Royal Plantation and the all-new Dunn’s River. Beaches is offering the same package at its Ocho Rios property. For guests staying at Sandals properties, the package, which starts at $249 per person per night, includes an all-day excursion on an Island Routes Powerboat Adventure. Guests at the Beaches Ocho Rios property will be able to enjoy a day of catamaran sailing on Island Routes Dunn’s River Catamaran Cruise. Both of these experiences will take the family to see hidden gems along Jamaica’s North Coast, along with some of the island’s most iconic locations.

 

Each cruise will also take you to a site where you can recreate your own scene from the James Bond film Dr. No. Sandals guests will be taken to Laughing Waters Beach to swim in the calm, crystal waters that are instantly recognizable from the movie. Beaches guests will enjoy a day of snorkeling; incredible views; and a trip to Dunn’s River Falls, featured in the same film.

Sandals and Beaches teamed up with American Airlines for this themed package. In February, the airline launched an all-new, non-stop flight to Jamaica (OCJ) from Miami International Airport, aptly named AA4007 in honor of the world’s favorite spy. The flight operates on Wednesday and Saturday through Ian Fleming International Airport, named after the author who created and wrote the James Bond novels in Jamaica.

 

The Love and Let Fly package not only lets you and the family enjoy your own James Bond moment, but it also gives you a chance to experience all the family-friendly fun and relaxation of an all-inclusive resort stay in an amazing destination like Jamaica.
