Wetsuit for Galapagos first week of July

Will a 3mm full Pinnacle plus a 2mm vest and beanie be enough for land based 2 dives a day in July?

Thanks for the information, Bob.
Looks like 5mm territory with vest & beanie to me.
Since my OP, I've read that there can be thermoclines down to the high fifties.
Anyone got the scoop on thermoclines in late June/early July?

Thermoclines at central island sites, sometimes at Wolf, but more often in low 60s and quick to swim through. Cousins Rock is a pretty chilly site. Punta Vicente Roca and Cabo Douglas are cold sites. That's where it can drop into the 50s. It's warmer at Darwin, however, you are often stationary there instead of in motion. 7mm still best and at least a beanie for the western sites. Multiple dives per day can make your body more susceptible to the chill.
