Highlights

If you are looking for the perfect ‘get away from it all” experience, then look no further than the Pelican Bar, a rustic wooden bar build on a sand bank a quarter of a mile out to sea, half way between the Black River and Treasure Beach. The Pelican Bar is the perfect way to spend your day doing absolutely nothing. Sunbath, drink beer, swim in the shallow waters, eat fresh fried fish or freshly caught grilled lobster and just shut out the outside world and chill.

The Pelican Bar quite literally started out as a dream. Local fisherman Floyd Forbes had a dream one night about a bar built out at sea, resting on stilts. The clarity of the dream inspired Forbes to set about building this bar, which he did by transporting large planks of wood on his fishing boat. In 2001 the bar was completed and it was named “The Pelican Bar” after the large flocks of Pelicans who rested on the sand bank. It was originally used by Floyd and his friends to sit and take a break from the hard day’s of fishing. However, it didn’t take very long for the local hotels to recognize the enormous potential of this picture-perfect serenity.

Enjoy private round trip transportation service to this magical location that is sure to give you a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Great round-trip transportation - Patrick was the best host/driver for our long excursion from Montego Bay to the boat for our transportation to the Pelican Bar and back! He talked the whole way and was telling us about different parts of the island that we drove by and was so knowledgeable! Highly recommend it!

Excellent Cruise - most accommodating crew! - Vessel was clean and well maintained. The crew was exceptionally welcoming and wanting to ensure everyone on board had a safe and best time possible. Drinks on board, snacks, music, and wonderful weather. What more could you expect from a cruise of this nature.

Amazing Experience - The tour to Floyd's Pelican bar was a great experience. What made the trip even more amazing was Patrick (owner/driver VIP Tours Jamaica). He communicated with us prior to the tour, he took care of every detail during trip and anticipated every need. He was a careful driver and very knowledgeable about the various communities we drove through. I would definitely recommend using his company for any tour, you would be in good hands. Looking forward to our next tour with him.
