Wetsuit/Dive skin - Grand Cayman and Cozumel in November

[CanadianTwosome]

As the title says, we'll be diving in Grand Cayman and Cozumel in a couple of weeks - second week of November. Do we need our wetsuits, or just our skins?

Hi,

I was diving off Cozumel in January this year and was very comfortable in a 2mm shortie wetsuit. You might find if you are at any depth for more than a few minutes without a wetsuit you will probably feel the cold fairly quickly.

Depends on how cold you get. I"m from Florida and I dive all the time with a 3mm because I get really cold and it makes me miserable. I have a friend right now down in the Cayman's diving in a skin so it depends on you.

I felt good, almost a little too warm, in my 3mm last November in Cozumel. Better to be too warm than cold because you can always open your neck up :)

Thanks so much everyone!! Happy diving! :)

I wear my 3mm farmer john's and the wife wears a shortie ... we're from Florida

 

In Jan/Feb in Cayman I add the top to the FJ's usually, and the wife switches to a full 3mm.

 

but I ALWAYS wear at least my FJ's, but the wife will wear a skin in the summer (in Cayman)

 

been going since 1984 or so ... week long trips to Sunset House or Brac Reef plus work and cruise visits.

We just came back from Cozumel diving and my husband and I each had a 2mm shortie. I was plenty warm and I am cold natured! A full skin would also do quite well. We are from Fla and use to warmer water.

Hope this helps!
