Tours & Golf

Glass Bottom Boat Tours
Quintessentially Caribbean, a ride aboard our glass bottom boats opens up a whole new world. Explore the natural beauty of the tropics from the turquoise sea — each glass-bottom boat tour is a thrilling adventure on its own.

Unlimited Golf
Tee off at Upton Golf & Country Club, one of Jamaica's premier championship golf courses. Our bus picks you up at approximately 8am and returns to the resort at 1:00 pm. Greens fees and transportation are our treat. Private golf lessons with an experienced pro are available for an additional fee. We recommend that guests make a reservation for either course one day in advance. Note: Caddies are mandatory and tipping is customary.

Golf at Upton Golf & Country Club
For guests of Couples Tower Isle and Couples Sans Souci, the Upton Golf & Country Club is a golfer’s dream come true. Built in 1951 as a 9-hole course by PK Saunders, the 18-hole par-71 course stretches out over rolling hills of Bermuda grass with striking views of the aqua-blue Caribbean and the lush mountain landscape. All of the greens have been recently resurfaced with Tifdwarf Bermuda grass.
Precision is the name of the game in this course. Even without major forced carries and few fairway bunkers, ten holes are flanked by out-of-bounds stakes making each shot a thrilling exercise of skill. Narrow fairways and small drop-off greens add a further level of challenge.
Guests may rent Yamaha golf carts, Adidas golf shoes, and Taylor Made RBZ golf clubs at the club's pro shop.
The course rating and slope are as follows:
Blue tees 70.90 ratings and 128 slopes at 6,404 yards
White tees 69.90 rating and 125 slopes at 6,054 yards
Red tees 69.30 rating and 120 slopes at 4,961 yards
Rental & Caddy Fees
Mandatory Carts and Caddy fees of $50 per person must be paid at the resort.
Left and Right-handed clubs are available for rental. Taylor Made Clubs are approximately $60.00 for 18 holes.

Please note that the Upton Golf & Country Club only accepts credit/debit cards for payment.
