Because Sandals South Coast is located in a secluded area that is pretty far from the major tourist spots of Montego Bay and Ocho Rios, your best excursions from Sandals South Coast will be somewhat different from the Sandals resorts in those areas.
The good news is, there are still plenty of fun things to do and beautiful sights to see.
In our opinion, the best excursions from Sandals South Coast are the YS Falls experiences, which can be combined with fun adventures like ziplining or a tour and tasting at the Appleton Rum Estate.
Here are more details about the best excursions from Sandals South Coast:
