Portland is the place for the best of anything Jerk in Jamaica. You name it,they jerk it. Jerk is a method of cooking along with good spices. This place is famous for Jerk Chicken, Pork, and Sausages. Once a year around the middle of July this small scenic town has a huge Jerk Festival. You could smell the aroma of spices for miles around, and that's how far people would drive to this fishing village to experience this annual event.

This beach is ideal for sunbathing, swimming, and boating. On Sundays the locals would entertain by having beach parties with a wide variety of games, and food.
