William and Kate were then whisked away to an official meeting with Sir Patrick Linton Allen, Governor General, and his wife Lady Denise Allen at King's House.
Ahead of their arrival, up to 100 protestors had gathered at the residence following an open letter to the royal couple signed by a coalition of Jamaican politicians, business leaders, doctors and musicians.
They wrote: "We note with great concern your visit to our country Jamaica, during a period when we are still in the throes of a global pandemic and bracing for the full impact of another global crisis associated with the Russian/Ukraine war.
"We see no reason to celebrate 70 years of the ascension of your grandmother to the British throne because her leadership, and that of her predecessors, has perpetuated the greatest human rights tragedy in the history of humankind."
The view has been backed by opposition leader Mark Golding, who has said he intends to raise the issue of a public apology with the royal couple when they meet.
Earlier it was reported by The Independent that Jamaica has already begun the process of removing The Queen as head of state with the appointment of a senior government figure to see the nation through its transition to a republic.
Prime Minister Andrew Holness committed to making Jamaica a republic during his election campaign, but a referendum is required to make the change. But there remains some opposition to the move from some in the Caribbean nation, which the Queen has visited six times during her 70-year reign.
