Waterfalls like this don't just stumbleupon. Especially in rural St. Andrew. If you're not living on this side of the island you'll definitely have no business up this side in the mountains. There are little to no public transportation in these areas, so the road is pretty much lonely. The drive is long and the roads are narrow if that doesn't get to you, then the potholes decorating the road will certainly do. What could've been a short trip took hours due to poor roads condition. Doesn't seem like the members of these community voted (Inside joke) SMH.. If you don't own a Jeep, Pickup or Tractor etc don't even attempt to take on this journey.
Poor road conditions
I am somewhat clueless to the actual name of this waterfall, my good friend Kyle from Instagram told me about it a few years back and even sent me the pin and advised me which direction to drive to get there because the roads were in very poor conditions. While driving to the location I remembered why I waited so long to go. DI ROAD BAD!!! If you do decide to visit this spot the sensible thing to do is to go early, with a group and don't be in a hurry to get back into the city. There is really no need for that since the traffic is non-existent, if you're not the one driving sit back and enjoy the views.

On Wednesday March 2, 2022 I left home 10am with another curious soul as myself. We drove to Gordon Town square and then turned right and continued. We stopped a few times along the journey and asked for directions to see if we're heading in the right directions, even though I had the pin for the location we were heading. This was for the reassurance of the person driving lol. When we got to the location it was around midday, You can actually see the waterfalls from the road way if you have an eye for such things lol.
View of the falls from the main road
We took our backpacks from the car and started the mini hike down hill. We had to walk through somebody's yard to get to it and also get help from a small boy who we paid to show us the way from his house to the falls.
See my YouTube video for a small preview of the entire journey.
However we didn’t get to swim because algae took over the river bed. Nevertheless it was still so beautiful. St. Peter was tall and handsome as heaven. I was in complete bliss. I could just imagine what it's like without the algae.

There is no guarantee when chasing waterfalls sometimes you hit the jackpot and sometimes you just have to revisit, in this case I will.

Nanny Falls I always wanted to visit Nanny Falls but never seems to have company to go so I decided to save it for last. About a month ago I saw a flier on Instagram advertising a trip there. I messaged and asked a question but not long after I totally forgot about it. Too many waterfalls rushing through my mind and I wanna see the unique ones first lol. Plus This month (April) has been really good to me. I've seen some new waterfalls Big River (Lime Ha ll) and Marston Spring (Spanish River ). I also revisited Stewart Mountain. I also got some beach days in and I finally got a good photo of the waterfalls in Ocho Rios, so as you can see it's been a perfect month for me. Nanny Falls Fast-forward to April 21, the host for the trip I messaged about a month back reached out to me two days before the trip to offer me an exclusive deal. I don't like doing much on my sabbath however I accepted the offer, bear in mind that I've never gone on a bus trip with people I don'...
Less than 48 hours ago I was in Clarendon chasing waterfalls and getting bitten by ants, which by the way left some huge red bumps on my body. Here I am once again heading back to see the cascade I did not get to see when I visited Johnson Crawle . Today is December 24, yes Christmas Eve but I don't celebrate that. Yesterday was my daughter's birthday and sad to say the older she gets the more she finds what I like doing boring SMH kids. I have taken her on a few of my adventures when she was much younger but these days the only place she's willing to go with me is to the beach or a restaurant. Today's plan was to head out early to make a quick run into a community to see a waterfalls from the road way then back to Braehead Fall to meet up with the dude that took us to Johnson Crawle , to see Double Head Falls but once a again things didn’t go as planned because I was going with Denine, you might remember her from the Governor Falls adventure. Yes she was late again ...
