The Bob Marley Museum

Local information
Airport guide
Before you set off, take a look at our guide to Jamaica's Sangster International Airport.
Local transport
Minibuses and taxis are the cheapest way of getting around Montego Bay. Route taxis travel set routes and are cheaper than tourist taxis, which are more flexible. We recommend you agree a price before you get into a taxi.
Local currency
The local currency in Montego Bay is the Jamaican Dollar. The US Dollar is also accepted, although mainly in tourist areas, not across the whole country.

Electricity
Jamaica has a voltage supply of 110-120 volts, the same as the US. The main plug socket types are North American grounded and non-grounded plugs, but these may require an adapter.
