Milk River Spa
The Milk River Spa and hotel, about 30 miles (48km) southeast of
Mandeville, is operated by Jamaica's Ministry of Tourism. Analysis
of the mineral waters that flow from the nearby hills apparently
show that they are richer than the waters of any of the leading
European spas, and are reputed to cure numerous ailments like
rheumatism, gout, neuralgia and liver disorders. There are two
springs, baths and a public mineral water swimming pool open on
weekends. The hotel is built against a limestone cliff above the
baths. The mineral springs were discovered during the 18th Century
by an escaped slave.
