town, northeastern coast of Jamaica, 60 mi (97 km) northeast of Kingston. One of the island's largest ports, it is a shipping point for bananas, coconuts, and cacao and is one of Jamaica's oldest and least-commercialized tourist resorts. It lies on a bay divided by a promontory into East and West Harbours; the latter is sheltered by the small Navy Island. There are fine beaches in the vicinity and excellent deep-sea fishing, sailing, and skin diving, especially at Blue Hole Lagoon. The town is the site of the annual International Marlin Tournament, which attracts many sports fishermen. A curiously surrealistic intrusion into this tropical paradise is Folly, the decaying ruins of a Roman-style villa built by an ill-fated American millionaire at the turn of the 20th century. Pop. (1991) urban area, 13,246.
