Runaway Bay history - learn what once happend
Situated on Jamaica's northeast coast, 5 miles (8km) east of Discovery Bay, where Columbus is said to have first landed on the island, one finds the beautiful and exclusive resort area called Runaway Bay. Situated to the west of Ocho Rios, Runaway Bay has great historical interest, as it is believed to be where Spanish forces fled Jamaica for Cuba after the decisive battle with the British in 1658. The Runaway Bay Caves and Green Grotto, just outside the resort, are thought to have been the hiding places for the retreating Spanish. It is more secluded than Ocho Rios, and without the vendors or cruise-ship arrivals. Basically this is no real town; its mainly just a beachfront strip of hotels.
