The trip, taken at the behest of Prince William’s grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, is intended to strengthen the U.K.’s ties with Commonwealth countries.
The British royals toured the Trench Town Culture Yard Museum where reggae icon Bob Marley lived and interacted with other celebrated artists. William, 39, and Middleton, 40, learned about the impact of reggae and how it continues to be influential today. They even joined in some live music and played the drums.
Donnette Dowe, manager of Trench Town Culture Yard, told the Jamaica Gleaner that she hoped the royal visit will encourage tourism. Visits to the cultural site have fallen significantly amid the coronavirus pandemic.
