What to expect

Sam Sharpe Square in Montego Bay was renamed in 1976 in honor of national hero Sam Sharpe, who hailed from the city. Sharpe, known for his role in the 1831-32 Emancipation War, was executed in Montego Bay Market Place on May 23, 1832. The square features several heritage structures, including the Sam Sharpe Monument, the Cage, the Civic Centre, the Freedom Monument, and a fountain. The monument, designed by Kay Sullivan, depicts Sharpe holding his Bible and addressing his people. Unveiled in 1983 by then-Prime Minister Edward Seaga, the monument stands as a testament to Sharpe's legacy. Montego Bay's main craft market offers a vibrant array of colorful souvenirs, dominated by hues of yellow, blue, purple, and green. Visitors can explore a variety of straw and wooden items, along with T-shirts, hats, dolls, and other novelties. The lively atmosphere is complemented by the melodic Jamaican accent of vendors enticing tourists to take home a piece of the island. For high-quality goods, the Crafts Market at Harbour Street is recommended, featuring handmade leather, wood, and straw souvenirs, including hats, musical instruments, and beads.
