Hi,

I am going diving in Eilat in the last week of September.

I believe the water temp will be around 26-27Celcius.

I was wondering what your opinions are on whether to use a 3mm shortie or a 5mm full one piece suit?

Being a short and wide person, I find it hard using a 5mm two piece and ideally would like to use a 3mm shortie. Is the water really going to be that temp and so can I get away with a 3mm shortie and perhaps a hoodie?

Sorry, I know it's not very clear, but just want people's thoughts on suits. I am looking to buy one before I go as well... Any shop recommendations in London, UK?
