Higher Vibes Travel is a regenerative, responsible travel planning company that makes it easy for you to explore the hidden gems of Jamaica, enjoy your adventure, and create a positive impact.
Back Where it All Began
In 2003, we began fostering relationships with the remarkable people of Bluefields, Jamaica. On our first visit there, we were gifted the ultimate hospitality and gained a small glimpse into what this rural community was already doing - with meager resources - to protect it's cultural and environmental assets.
We were enamored and as we continued to nurture these new relationships, our work blossomed into formal partnerships with Bluefields community development organizations - including launching a non-profit organization in 2017 - to help support their goals in clean water, food security, education and job creation.
Throughout the years, as we hosted multiple volunteer groups to aid in projects, making an impact of over $200K USD within the Bluefields community, we found ourselves contemplating how to share this small piece of paradise with the world, while continuing to make a meaningful impact yet not overburden the community.
From this foundation, Higher Vibes Travel was born.
