We went last year from TB and stayed overnight.It took about 5 hours...very scenic...cannot remember the cost but it was worth it.Beautiful place but felt like we were coming 'home' when we got back to TB.I'm sure Rebecca can tell you the cost.Have fun.

The first four years I travelled to Jamaica I always managed this trip. Couldn't decided which area I loved more so I would always do both....long haul and kind of expensive....but worth it! I've paid anywhere between $160-220 for this trip. I've used Jakes drivers, Carolyn Barrett, villa drivers, and friends. Just depends on how busy everyone is to how much you pay--I've found most drivers from TB really don't like this journey much, because it takes ALL day roundtrip-some even stay in Portie and head back the next day.

It takes approximately 6 hours to get to Port Antonio from Treasure Beach. Some of that drive is through hills and some along the coastline, but all is beautiful. The cost will range from $220 - $250 depending on how many persons and if you are just being dropped off vs. returning back again.

Darlene, take the coastline route to Port Antonio, it is beautiful and you will truly get to see the natural beauty of Jamaica. I am originally from Port Antonio and try to visit home as much as possible. If you need any info on best scenic places to visit let me know.

Well, if you take the route to Ocho Rios thru Brownstown, St. Ann and ride the coast from there it will take you about 5/6 hours
