Water sports lover? Love the beach but also like to hit the high seas for a little action? Well, I want to tell you about some all inclusive vacations that also include motorized and non-motorized water sports. Some all inclusives only offer limited non-motorized water sports on a complimentary basis while others, such as Couples Resorts in Jamaica, offer a multitude of the inclusive motorized type. No, I don't mean Jet Skis. At Couples Swept Away, for example, you have a choice of daily snorkeling trips, glass bottom boats, and scuba diving. Yes, scuba diving is included at Couples. Certified Divers may dive once per day on the all inclusive vacation plan. For non-certified divers, there is a complimentary resort course and one included dive per stay. Additional non-certified dives are $50 each and are subject to availability. The resort course is not a PADI certification. You could opt to get full certification but that is additional. The water in Negril is amazing and you won't be dissapointed with the included watersports here. Hobie Cats (like a personal catamaran), windsurfing, kayaking, Pedal Boats and more are complimentary at Swept Away. Oh, about the Jet Skis. There are plenty of outside vendors on the beach in Negril that will gladly rent you one. Be careful to pay attention to the instructions. You wouldn't want to crash a snorkeling party :) Oh, I just about forgot. Waterskiing is also included with an all inclusive trip to Couples Resorts. Not a bad deal!
Well, I guess you want to know about stuff for the kids. Banana Boats? Yes. This is a favorite of younger all inclusive guests. Almond Resorts in St Lucia and Barbados offer complimentary banana boat rides in addition to the standard non-motorized activities. Dreams Resorts offers ocean trampolines at most of their hotels. I don't know if you call a waterpark, "water sports", but Coconut Bay in St Lucia has a nice one, with lazy river for tubing, two exhilarating water slides and more. Palace Resorts in Mexico owns the Wet N Wild Waterpark that encompasses 18 acres of fun. Palace includes entrance to the park, round trip transfers, food and beverages and all activities with the exception of the Dolphin Swim and Sea Lion attraction. Here you can use the lazy river, wave pool, water slides and an 800 ft white sand beach.
Group all inclusive water activities also exist in the Caribbean. As I mentioned before, Couples Resorts has a ton of water sports in their all inclusive package. It gets better. At Couples Negril and Swept Away, a sunset catamaran cruise is included. You will have a chance to see one of the best sunsets in the world and might even get a chance to cliff dive if you choose :)
Most all inclusive resorts include some type of complimentary watersports. Usually these are limited to the non-motorized types. Rarely, will you see scuba included. In addition to Couples Resorts, Superclubs includes diving at their more pricey resorts. There is a sprinkling of other resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico that include diving. Please be sure to check with an agent or our website for more information. Keep in mind that inclusions are subject to change without notice.
If you have a story about the Caribbean, let me know. I can always learn more :)
Til Next Time,
