Zamami-Jima

[ScubaJoel]

Hi there,

I will be some days to Zamami the week after GW. I wonder what the water temperatures will be like.
Because of baggage limits I don't want to carry my 6,5 mm wetsuit with. Thought a 3mm full and a 6,5mm vest with hood will do?
Hints and tipps will be very appreciated.

Temps down this way are running 21-22C in the water and warmer for the air. I've gone from my dry suit to a 5mm, on all but my deco dives with no problem. By the time you get here water temp will have climbed a degree or two also.

A degree or two? Wuah
Thanks a lot for this info. As a warmwater diver I better go with my 6,5 mm then.
