This is the restaurant located right at the Montego Bay Yacht Club, so you can simply stroll down the dock and take a table.

This place is one of the prettiest locations in Montego Bay, a houseboat floating on the Bogue Lagoon, it is known for serving some of the best food in town. Relatively high-budget meals around $25 but the finest quality. Very close to the Yacht Club, it's about a 10minute walk in a very safe area.

Drinks & Nightlife
Margaritaville is one of the two top party places in Montego Bay. Thursday nights are ladies night and the DJ plays reggae and dancehall until the sun rises. It is USD $10 entry and is a safe place for visitors to party alongside locals. Located on the hip strip, it cost around $10-15 USD for a taxi back to the Yacht Club. It's also one of the best locations to watch the sunset over the ocean from the big outdoor terrace as well as a big waterslide and water toys to play with. Try the uber strong Pina Coladas - they'll help you really get into the vibe :)
