Welcome to Jamaica

United Artists

Dr. No wasn’t the first of Ian Fleming’s novels about James Bond — that was 1953’s Casino Royale — but Dr. No was the first to be made into a feature film.

Set in London, Jamaica and the fictional island of Crab Kay, it shot on location in Jamaica in 1962.

The plot concerns Agent 007 traveling to Jamaica to investigate the death of MI6 station chief John Strangways. But that’s just an excuse to bring together Bond (Sean Connery) and Honey Ryder (Ursula Andress), above.
