Palisadoes (word apparently of Portuguese origin) is the thin tombolo of sand that serves as a natural protection for Kingston Harbour, Jamaica. Norman Manley International Airport and the historic town of Port Royal are both on Palisadoes.
The privateer Henry Morgan was buried in Palisadoes cemetery, which sank beneath the sea after the 1692 earthquake.[1]
There are concerns that activities of sight seers who litter the place may lead to infestation by roaches.[2]
Some organisation have made efforts in 2023 to clean up the place to address possible pollution with plastics and infestation by roaches and rodents [3]
