I found this info on a cruising website (can't remember which) and thought it had some useful info. Hope you find it helpful as well.
"Things worth doing in Ocho Rios within a few minutes of pier (as recommended by a Local):
Internet Cafe - exit the pier, turn left and it's across the street beside the Burger King
Supermarket ( coffee, sauce and spices)- exit the pier, turn left just a short walk.
Island Village/ Magaritaville - turn right about 5 minutes from the pier
Taj Mahal - souvenir/shopping close to Island Village
Mama Marley (Jamaican restaurant) - left across the street from Sunset Jamaica Grande
Craft Market - left of the pier
Waterfalls: Dunn's River vs Coyaba River Garden and Museum
Dunn's River, powerful magnificent. Must see/should see at least once but be ready to deal with very aggressive vendors. Avoid the vendors by leaving through the entrance. Coyaba, beautiful botanical garden with waterfall that is fun and easy to climb.
Beaches: Paradise beach is by Magaritaville which is a tourist trap but a lot of fun.
Reggae beach a short ride away nicer and less crowded.
*** By a local I mean that I was born and raised in this area but now return primarily as an American tourist. The about places I have enjoyed over the years."
