Fun family activities in Falmouth might be easier to find than you think. Here’s one way we get to have fun as a family for free, right in the Falmouth area.
Fun Family Activities in Falmouth, Jamaica
Our family is blessed to live about 30 minutes from the North Coast in Falmouth. The children and I are always excited to see the beach. Unfortunately, though, Dad isn’t much a beach lover as he is a man for rivers.
So, the children and I have a getaway that we use to get to the beach anyhow.
We use the local library in Falmouth!
It so happens that our local library is right across the road from the local fishing beach. We have come to realise that when we plan to get or return books, we can also (conveniently) pack some towels.
Visiting the library in Falmouth is a perfect way to combine learning and fun. Imagine experiencing education along with the thrill of outdoor fun, all in one go. Well, that’s what we do and you’re about to find out how!
Things to do in Falmouth Jamaica with Children
The children always have fun at the library in and of itself: they get excited when browsing the shelves to pick out a new book to take home.
They also have loads of fun outside the library digging around the sandy ground for crabs.
However, the short trek to go over to the beach is the ultimate fun ending to an already enjoyable outing. That’s where they play in the sand, hunt for seashells, dig for more crabs, and yes, swim in the water.
When it’s time to go home, we fill some bottles with fresh water at the pipe over at the fishing village. That’s what I use to wash off the children so they can be clean enough to get dressed and be picked up by our driver.
A thorough cleaning is always reserved for when we go back home.

Free fun activities for the family are not as hard to find in Falmouth as you think.
Things to do in Falmouth with children don’t have to cost money either – our trips to the library/the beach in Falmouth cost us only transportation. No entry fee is needed, and even food can be packed for the trip. That means you can avoid needing to make any purchases!
Who would have thought that a seemingly ordinary trip to the library could become an all-inclusive package of enjoyment?! Fun for your family in Falmouth might be nearer to you than you realise!
