I have been diving for about 8 years now all of it up to last week in a warm water enviroment, the Red Sea is on my doorstep. About 2 years ago I did a Dry Suit course up in Aberdeen Scotland with the intension of diving while I am on holiday back in Scotland, never followed it up due to work comitments etc. Last time I was back home in bonnie Scotland I bit the bullet and treated myself to a Scubapro Everdry4 Dry Suit, 5mm Gloves and Hood. I had a wonderful time did 5 shore dives in and around Loch Fyne Argyle, its a wee bit different and the bigest thing I had to get used to was completing drills in 5mm gloves and a small issue of a neoprene neck seal that was trying to strangle me. Followed some good advice and streched it over a tank for a few days, its still tight though.
The underwater scenery was very atmospheric and vis was about 5 meters, max depth on the dives was 20 M, loads of congers, scallops and squat Lobsters on every dive. It was amazing, but seemed a lot more serious than my usual Tropical Reef senario.
I can thoroughly recommend Diving Cooler waters if you get the chance, water temperature was about 11C or about 52F, which the locals were saying was warm!
