Hello All,
I am going on a dive trip to Baja, Mexico from around mid May 2024. I was curious what thickness wetsuit most people would use at this time? What is the water temp usually and what is the thermocline temp?
The trip is planned on spending 3-4 days in each of LaVentana, LaPaz and Cabo Pulmo or Cabo San Lucas.
I brought a 3mm to Bonaire in October last year and I only wore it 1-2 times as the water was in the mid 80’s even at 100ft. I just wore a bathing suit and a rash guard.
In New England, I generally get colder wearing a 7/5mm ScubaPro at and use a DrySuit most of the year. Temps usually mid to high 50’s and warmer months mid 60’s. I generally only get cold in lower 50’s.
Is there any other gear or items I should consider bringing when going to Baja, Mexico (not a live aboard trip)?
Thank you,
Collin
