Portland Point, Jamaica

Surrounded to the south by the Caribbean Sea, Portland Point is the southernmost feature of JAMAICA island. While Portland Point is the southern point of the island of Jamaica, the Pedro Cays about 150 kilometers south of Jamaica are the country's southernmost extent since the Pedro Cays are a Jamaican territory. Portland Point is the southern point of a larger unnamed peninsula. A lighthouse and towns such as Mahoe Gardens, Portland Cave, Portland Cottage, and Rocky Point are on the peninsula. To the east of Portland Point and the peninsula is Portland Bight, a water body designated by the Jamaican government as part of the Portland Bight Protected Area, created to preserve and protect marine but also land-based species.
