    Sunset diner on private island

    Amazing diner during the Sunset on a small private island. Andrew took very good care of us. The atmosphere was unique for a very romantic night.

    Response from the operator: Happy that you enjoyed the food and the athmosphere of this amazing place.

    So much fun!!!!!

    We went to Half Moon Beach to get away from negril beach and a nice lunch. After we ordered and sat on the beach we saw the island that calico jacks pirate shack was on. Long story short they packed our lunch to go and off on a boat we went!!! We had an amazing afternoon. Highly Recommended check this place out.

    A little slice of heaven!

    We visited Calico Jack's 3 years ago on our anniversary. My husband *& I enjoyed a great meal and plenty of Red Stripes while taking in the beautiful ocean. This year we took our teenage kids back and had another great meal and snorkeled around the island. It is just wonderful. I highly recommend renting a boat to take you there and enjoy an afternoon of quiet time, as it does not get very crowded and is a nice place to unwind.

    Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montego Bay.

    How much does Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay cost?

    +

    Prices start at $115 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Montego Bay usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Montego Bay is not rushed.

    Is Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Montego Bay, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Montego Bay can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Montego Bay and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Montego Bay within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Montego Bay?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Montego Bay experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Appleton Estate Admission Ticket & Distillery Tour with Tastings, Blue Hole and Dunn's River Falls Private Tour from Montego Bay, Montego Bay Clear Kayak Drone Photoshoot & Video. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Montego Bay?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Montego Bay?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay?

    +

    Included: Entrance fee for beach $7.00 USD per person; and Hotel/port pickup and drop-off. Not included: Lunch; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 33 listed pickup locations in and around Montego Bay. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Private Half Moon Beach Tour from Montego Bay offered in?

    +
