I love drift diving! It's great not having to worry about navigation; the boat drifts along with you, and when you are done you just come up and there's the boat. I love going off the wall and just hanging there and letting the terrain go past me. There are few dive sites where there aren't numerous crosscurrent channels and large coral heads where you can duck down out of the current and stop when you want to.
Just don't fight it. Whoever coined the phrase "go with the flow" could have been speaking of Cozumel drift diving. I am somewhat spoiled by it.
My daughter and I did some "drift diving" in Jupiter FL a couple months ago and it was nothing like the drift in Cozumel where you just hang there and enjoy the ride. It was a great time and lots of sharks and turtles but really looking forward to warmer water and a 2mm shorty and the fins being for steering more than momentum.
