Jamaica, Dance River Waterfalls

The Dance River Waterfalls are located near the town of Ocho Rios in Jamaica, on the territory of the natural park of the same name. This is one of the most visited attractions of the island and one of the most picturesque waterfalls in the world. The total length of the cascades is 180 m, and the total height is 55 m, and the streams form several small lagoons here. 

Waterfalls of this type, like the Dance River, geologists call a "living phenomenon": water from underground sources is rich in calcium and by itself washes the terraces in the riverbed. In addition, Dance River is one of the few limestone waterfalls in the world that plunge directly into the sea. After passing the waterfalls, the river flows into the Caribbean Sea in the western part of a beautiful white sand beach.
