Bridging Tourism, Culture, and Cinema in Jamaica 🇯🇲 ⭐️
We were delighted to welcome Hollywood actor Ricco Ross (Beauty in Black) and his wife, actress and writer Dr. Julie Ross, during their recent first visit to Jamaica!
As part of their stay for the Negril Universal Film Festival, the couple explored iconic cultural landmarks, including the Bob Marley Museum, and enjoyed a special lunch hosted by JAMVAC Executive Director Joy Roberts at Devon House.
Beyond experiencing our island’s rich heritage and world-class hospitality alongside Joy Roberts and our team, this visit opened meaningful discussions regarding strategic collaborations between Jamaica’s tourism sector and the international film industry-paving the way for future film projects with WES Film Studios, producer Mark Spark Welch, and Princess Senses The Mangrove resort.
At Jamaica Cruising, we continue to highlight how Jamaica’s unique culture, storied history, and vibrant gateways make our island a premier global hub for tourism, arts, and international partnerships.
