Comments	Diving isn't really what you go to Couples Resort for, but it is inclusive with the stay and the guys who run the dive shop are awesome. Jamaica is very laid back and chill, so is the diving. My DM seemed so relaxed I wondered if he was even breathing. They took us to some fun sites. After all having fun is what it is all about. Nothing challenging or all that deep. One site had us at ~90 ft but we were under the action, and looking up at the barracudas cruising overhead. Fun, right? Most dives were drift dives with surface running in one direction and at depth running the other. So it was go down drift along till one of us reach a reasonable limit, surface and drift back for a little until the boat came for us. Could have drifted to the boat, it was so nice and easy going.So if you are headed out for a lovers retreat and wish to include a little diving for fun, I would recommend this to anyone. The place is nice and a lot of fun. If you are specific and want something special you have but to ask and they will do their best to accommodate your desires.
