Nude diving?

[DaveJo127]

Does PADI give a certification for that skill?

I'll bet the checkout dives draw a crowd!

My luck it would be a class of all dudes.

I prefer diving in the tropics, warm water is my friend (I can't deal with cold at ALL), but I've done plenty of nude dives. And not just the infamous 100th, either. I think it's fun!

I was like that with skydiving.. I was always up for a NAKED jump.. I think next trip to Bonaire I'll get my naked groove back on..

Someone please move this to an appropriate forum if needed.

Minimum exposure protection.

Beyond wild Caribbean dive shop stories (100th dive naked, and other unmentionable shenanigans) is this more common than one would expect? Any gear considerations?

I would think in terms of gear you might want to take a fly-swatter to keep curious fish away from certain parts.

Why so negative about nibblers? Seems like an epic time to visit a cleaning station.

I'm not against nibblers but when I say, "not so hard" I need that to be understood.

True, gotta clean a close watch, especially on the cleaner shrimp. Good thing there's no such thing as a cleaner lobster.

Fire coral ? Urchins ?
Why invite trouble?

One of the LOBs we use has a regular group of nudists that books a week every year. To be honest I did not ask what they wore when diving...

Which LOB is that? (asking for a friend)

Bearer of boring news. That's a liveaboard to us common folk.

Wonder how buoyancy would improve over sensitive bottoms.

I'd be more concerned about female divers pointing and saying, "not so hard".
