What Jamaica Just Did at Rockfort & NMIA Will Shock YOU!

After years of closure, the Rockfort Mineral Bath has officially reopened, bringing back one of Jamaica’s most cherished heritage and wellness landmarks. Nestled at the foot of Long Mountain, the historic bath—first formed after the 1907 earthquake—has been fully restored with upgraded facilities, improved security, and a five-year $57 million investment from Carib Cement under a 25-year lease. Declared a national monument in 1992, Rockfort now offers affordable access for families, seniors, and wellness seekers to once again enjoy its soothing, mineral-rich waters and centuries of history.
But the revitalization doesn’t stop there. Just down the road at the Norman Manley International Airport, visitors are now greeted by a bold new cultural landmark. The NMIA Flag Roundabout has been transformed into a massive public art installation featuring 3D “KINGSTON” and “NMIA” letters covered in a vibrant mural by Matthew McCarthy and his team of local artists. Titled “Traffic Blockin’,” the mural blends planes, birds, and cultural motifs, celebrating Kingston as a UNESCO Creative City. A towering Jamaican flag now flies proudly at the site, turning a once plain roundabout into a cultural gateway to the capital.
Together, these projects mark a new era for Kingston—where history, wellness, and creativity meet to showcase Jamaica’s pride to the world.
