I'm looking for advice on wetsuits! I'm going to be diving in Curacao in June and then *hopefully* doing a lot of diving in the Bahamas next January/February...
Last year I dove in Curacao in March in a shorty 3 mil and got goose bumps - I couldn't find a full suit to rent so it was suggested that I try 2 shorties because I was getting seriously cold. That threw off my weights, uhg. I still got very cold by the end of the dives (we were diving pretty shallow so we were down for a while.) Now that we're going back and looking at doing a lot more diving I'd like to have my own suit. I was thinking of a full 3 mil but talking with some women at the local dive shop, they recommended a 5 mil. Any thoughts?
