Lovers Leap Area

St Elizabeth Parish on the Southwest Coast of Jamaica. Until now there were few tourists, but this is starting to change. The area grows most of the mellons, peppers, scallions, tobacco and corn for the rest of Jamaica. Yet is has low rainfall, so they mulch the ground with grass to retain the water. Lovers Leap is a 1700 ft cliff from which a couple of slave lovers leaped to escape their master who wanted the girl for himself. It has a restaurant and a small museum with Indian and more recent artifacts. It has a nice garden with a Cactus farm, there is a small entrance fee.
