Needless to say, I loved diving in the Keys far more then the quarry and lake dives I have done in West Virginia and Wisconsin.
I have about 14 dives, about half in the Keys and half in cold water (surface 65 degrees F down to about 40 degrees F). I find warm water diving easy and comfortable (bouyancy controlled, easy of movement, etc.), while I find cold water diving always has me adjusting and very, very conscious of where I am in the water (boyancy constantly needs adjustment as I move through thermoclines, all that neoprene, etc.).
Does cold water diving ever become like second-nature, which warm water seems to have already done for me?
