Trident Castle - Turtle Crawle Bay, 10 minute drive east of Port Antonio (left hand side of the road)

The Trident castle is the only castle in the Caribbean and was built in the 1980s by the architect Earl Levy. The castle was commissioned by Mr Levy's then business partner, Baroness Fahmi of Germany.

However, there were subsequent legal wrangling between the architect and the baroness, resulting in Levy taking ownership of the castle. Trident Castle is now a weekend home for the Levy family but can be rented out for visits and special occasions. The property is an example of rocco stonework, constructed in an Austrian Baroque style. There are six elegant bedrooms, a music room, a dining fall and peacocks have the free run of the grounds.
