The south coast of Jamaica, encompassing St. Elizabeth and Westmoreland, offers a unique experience compared to the bustling tourist havens like Ocho Rios and Montego Bay. Here, attractions spread out, inviting road trips and leisurely exploration to places like YS Falls (16 minutes away), Touring Black River (7 minutes away), staying at Sea Breeze Villa (20 minutes) or Lashings Boutique Hotel (56 minutes away). Nestled at a strategic “Y” junction, where routes to Westmoreland and Black River diverge, Nolas Event has become a magnet for both locals and adventurous visitors.
