Montego Bay, on the northwest coast, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Caribbean. It is Jamaica's second-largest city and a thriving port. Montego Bay has some excellent examples of Georgian architecture, a style emphasizing classic proportions. Outside Montego Bay lie several splendid plantations and great houses that are a reminder of a time when sugar, the Caribbean's boom crop, generated great fortunes for Jamaica's large landholders.
