Rafting on the Martha Brae

Trelawny Jamaica, just 25 miles from Montego Bay and 40 miles from Ocho Rios nestled in the picturesque hills, this spectacular Rafter's Village is where your journey will begin.

Martha Brae River rafting on the banks of the River Matibereon in Jamaica! Encompassing over 3 miles of beautiful and picturesque river, your romantic adventure a top your bamboo raft will have you traveling along untouched paradise taking you back in the time when sugar was king and rafts transported this precious cargo to merchant ships in the harbour.

The Martha Brae river is named after an Arawak Indian girl, a member of the tribe of Indians who were Jamaica's first known inhabitants and who called the island, Xaymaca, land of wood and water.

Martha Brae River is named after an old Arawak witch. Legend has it, an old Arawak witch, who lived on the banks of the River Matibereon. Having heard tales of the Arawak gold, Spanish treasure hunters captured the witch to lead them to the treasure.

The Legend of Martha Brae

The legend tells of an old Arawak witch, who lived on the bank of the River Matibereon. Having heard tales of the Arawak gold, Spanish treasure hunters captured the witch to lead them to the treasure. Pretending to comply she led them into a cave, then suddenly disappeared. Frightened, the Spaniards ran out of the cave but the river engulfed them. The witch then changed the course of the river forever.

Twisted translations produced the English version of river Matibereon to be – Martha Brae.

The Martha Brae River Rafting tour will last approximately one hour and fifteen minutes. The price includes round trip transportation, a complementary fruit punch on arrival as well as entertainment by the Village Mento Band. There is also a souvenir shop, bars and restaurants at the main location.
