The morning light strips the pier to silver and the Caribbean pushes a slow, steady current against the hull as your instructor checks regulators and gauges. On a two-tank Discover Scuba outing in Montego Bay, you trade the surface glare for the hush of shallow reef: fingers of coral rising like city blocks, parrotfish scraping algae, and sunlight slicing into blue.
