Travel advice for this country

Natural disasters

Jamaica is still suffering from the hurricane season and some local road diversions remain in force. Drivers should exercise extreme caution and obey diversion signals.

The hurricane season in the Caribbean normally runs from June to November. You should monitor local and international weather updates from the World Meteorological Organisation and the US National Hurricane Centre. See tropical cyclones for more detailed information about what to do if you are caught up in a hurricane.
