Driftwood Spa at Jakes

Embracing Jamaica’s long tradition of nurturing and healing, Driftwood Spa draws fresh ingredients from Jakes gardens. Located at the corner of the Jakes property, the Driftwood Spa bumps right up against the sea, with open-air treatment rooms that let in the ocean breeze. All our spa services begin with a cool refreshing towel infused with Driftwood Spa’s own signature scent, signaling that you’ve entered a special place.

Jake’s Restaurants On-Site

Jack Sprat, Jakes Restaurant, and Dougies Bar are a few on-site restaurants at your fingertips. When you’re eating and drinking at Jakes, you can expect that the ingredients we use to make all of our local dishes come from nearby farmers and fishermen. You see, we’re all about Grown Locally.

Experiences and Tours

Captain Dennis offers a range of boat tours. These include a cookout on a private beach (truly unique, we can’t recommend this highly enough), a trip to Pelican Bar (the now famous shanty shack built out in the middle of the sea), a tour up the Black River (home to crocodiles and other native species) plus other excursions, depending on the time of year and weather.

PELICAN BAR
No trip to Jamaica is complete without a visit to this rustic stick-built bar on stilts perched on a sandbar a quarter-mile offshore. Knock back an ice-cold Red Stripe and marvel at the assortment of memorabilia left by tourists from around the world as you get familiar with the place. You’ll have plenty to talk about while sitting on the planked walkways and dangling your legs in the sea.

PRIVATE BEACH COOKOUT LUNCH
Every dream about spending time on a secluded stretch of beach in Jamaica? This is it. Only here, over half a day, Captain Dennis and his team will cook a sumptuous lunch of fresh fish, lobster, vegetables and other delicacies over an open fire. A thatch-covered canopy, and plenty of cold drinks, provide a welcome respite from the Caribbean sun and heat. No extra charge for dolphin sightings! Still up for more? Continue on…

BLACK RIVER SAFARI
The Black River is one of the longest rivers in Jamaica. At a length of 53.4km (33miles). Its name refers to the darkness of the river bed caused by thick layers of decomposing vegetation. Over 100 species of birds have been recorded in the Black River morass and Crocodiles.

THE BLACK RIVER LOWER MORASS
The Black River Lower Morass (also known as the Great Morass) covers 125 square miles and is the largest wetland wildlife habitat in the Caribbean. The Morass is formed by the Black River and its tributaries making a large freshwater swamp. Scattered across the swamp are tiny islands, reed banks, lagoons and mangroves.

WILDLIFE
The Morass provides a breeding ground for a diverse range of wildlife, including nursery pools for baby fish and nesting grounds for birds. Over 100 species of birds have been identified in the Morass, including egrets, ospreys and herons, flamingos are even known to nest here from time to time. Commonly found fish include snapper, jack and snook. Plant life includes thatch palm, Brazil nut and red mangrove. However, the most prominent animals in the great morass are shrimp (Black River is the shrimp capital of Jamaica) and, of course, crocodiles!

BIRDS ON THE BLACK RIVER UPPER MORASS
The Black River Great Morass is an Important Bird Area in southwestern Jamaica. This IBA is the island’s largest freshwater wetland and lies on the coastal flood plain of the Black River. According to BirdLife International’s Important Bird Areas in the Caribbean: it consists of low marshland with limestone islands and is significant as a stronghold for the Vulnerable West Indian Whistling-Duck and for important numbers of the Near Threatened Caribbean Coot and White-crowned Pigeon. It also supports populations of 15 (of the 36) Jamaica Endemic Bird Area restricted range species. In addition, large numbers of Pied-billed Grebes have been recorded and regionally important populations of gulls and terns are found on the coast.
