3. Post confirms hotel reservations in Ocho Rios were made by
travelers at the Hibiscus Lodge, 974-2676, reservation # 1294 and
#1295.
4. Visitors traveling to Jamaica for periods less than two weeks do
not require a visa.
5. There has been no specific threat directed against official
American visitors or American tourists who visit Jamaica. However,
Jamaica has been designated a high threat country because of street
crime. It is recommended that caution be exercised while traveling
in Kingston. Walking after dark is not advised. Care should be
taken if driving at night. Overall, the same level of awareness
should be exercised as in a similar sized city in the United
States.

local bank located near the Embassy. ATM machines are also
available.
