I have been going to Cabo in February for the past few years. I generally take my dive gear and dive while I'm there. The water is cold. The 58 degree estimate in the other post is right on. You can decide what you need to wear for that temp. Personally, because I'm diving multiple days I like to be warm and wear a 7mm farmer john with a hood. That may be more than I need but my other suit is a 3mm and probably not enough. The local shops often rent a 3mm plus a 3mm shorty. The water isn't clear in February; certainly nothing like what you would find in Grand Cayman etc. but the visibility isn't bad. Don't expect to see any of the big animals this time of year. You can expect a fair number of fish and diving with the sea lions is fun. You should see eels, maybe a reef shark or two and if you are lucky some mantas. I dive with Amigos del mar which would be quite a trek from Riu but any dive shop is a distance from that resort. I don't know who they use directly from the hotel. Joe
