The entrance fee for Blue Hole in Jamaica typically ranges from $20 to $25 USD per person, depending on the source and recent updates[1][3][5][6][7]. Some sources specify $24.50 or $25 USD per adult, which usually includes all fees and taxes[1][3][5][7]. Another popular price point is $20 USD per adult as listed by Beaches Resorts[6]. However, some older or alternative guides mention a lower basic entry fee, such as $10 USD, but this is typically for limited access and may not reflect current (2025) pricing at the main Cool Blue Hole attraction near Ocho Rios, which has become more regulated in recent years[2].
The entrance fee generally includes access to the Blue Hole pools and waterfalls, but hiring a guide is often required for foreigners or first-time visitors, and tipping the guide (commonly around $10 per person) is customary and an additional cost[2]. Amenities at the site—such as bathrooms, life jacket rental, lockers, and parking—may be available for extra fees (e.g., locker rental at $5 USD)[3]. Opening hours are usually from 9am to 5pm, and the attraction is typically closed on Saturdays[2].
If you book through a tour, the admission fee is often bundled into the total tour cost, with transportation, and a guide included. For independent visitors, it is advised to check the current entry fee and consider booking a guide onsite for safety and the best experience[6].
