Hi,
My buddy and I depart Marsa Ghalib 26th May til 2nd June on liveaboard to St Johns.
Here's my question: my buddy is just starting to get some dives in in his new dry suit. He'll have at least two by the time we leave, but he's keen to get as many in as possible as soon as possible (so he can take his RB out in the UK without needing to faff and fumble with his drysuit cos he's not used to diving dry).
Is it sensible to dive dry in Egypt in late May/Early June? I'm thinking more about overheating here, especially on the rib from the boat to the dive site. I'm thinking it should be fine but to those of you who know the red sea AND dry suit diving - is there any reason why diving dry this time of year might be a problem?
Thanks,
John
p.s. he usually lives in Thailand and is used to water of 30C+ so once in the water I don't see the dry suit as being a problem this time of year in the red sea.
