Spotlight On
The British renamed “Puerto de Esquivella” (the former Spanish shipbuilding town), “Old Harbour” – despite the fact that the town is quite a distance inland! Over the years, the town has prospered because of its proximity to Old Harbour Bay, known for its wide fishing beach and bustling seaport. In the 1950s, Aluminia Jamaica Limited renamed part of Old Harbour Bay as Port Esquivel, an Anglicised version of the Spanish name. > Learn More

Old Woman Savanna:
In Clarendon, running roughly from Kellits to Crofts Hill there is an area known as Old Woman's Savanna.

She received permission to retire to her hato in the country thus giving the name to the area
