The Errol Flynn Marina is easily the biggest attraction in Port Antonio. But it's not just for the well-to-do or the boating enthusiast. The marina provides the perfect getaway for the casual strollers, the folks who like to read a good book under a tree's shade, or schoolers looking to chill for a while before heading home.

"It's a kind of focal point. People come to lounge, eat ice cream. It's as open to Jamaicans as it is to those who come here on yachts," said Dale Westin, general manager of the marina, which comes under the control of the Port Authority of Jamaica.

Apart from the dock area that is restricted to boating visitors, guests can access other sections like the restaurant and gift shops. Tours of the marina and nearby lighthouse can also be arranged for school and tourist groups.
