Montego Bay is the capital of the parish of St. James and the second largest city in Jamaica by area and the fourth by population (after Kingston , Spanish Town and Portmore ).
Montego Bay is a tourist destination with duty-free shopping, a cruise line terminal and several beaches. The city is backed by low mountains.
When Christopher Columbus for the first time visited the island in 1494, he named the bay Golfo de Buen Tiempo ("Fair Weather Gulf"). The name "Montego Bay" is believed to have originated as a corruption of the Spanish word manteca (" lard "), allegedly because during the Spanish period it was the port where lard, leather , and beef were exported. Jamaica was a colony of Spain from 1511 until 1655, when Oliver Cromwell 's Caribbean expedition, the Western Design , drove the Spanish from the island.
