Listed under UN/LOCODE JMOCJ, Ocho Rios on Jamaica's north coast is today better known as a cruise call than a cargo port. Its Reynolds Pier, built in 1961 to ship bauxite and sugar and renamed James Bond Pier after a 2021 upgrade, now mainly berths cruise vessels, with only limited freight in sugar and limestone; bauxite is no longer exported here. The Turtle Bay pier serves as the principal passenger terminal nearer town. Alongside depths of about 11–14 m, the port lacks scheduled container or liner breakbulk services. Hinterland access is essentially by road toward Kingston. For containers and customs clearance, Kingston (Kingston Freeport Terminal) is Jamaica's reference port, while alumina and bauxite move through Port Esquivel and Rocky Point/Port Kaiser.
