Thanks. diversteve January 21st, 2012, 04:18 PM 81o today - http://www.divecayman.ky/divemaster/weather.aspx Matt Beckwith January 21st, 2012, 05:07 PM I wore a 3-mm Neoprene full size suit there when the water temp was 81 degrees (as it is now) and it was perfect. rickthompson January 22nd, 2012, 02:14 PM I was there about a month ago and bottom temps ranged from 78-82º. I wore a full 3mm wetsuit the whole time and was fine, but my buddy ended up having to rent an additional 3mm to layer over his full 3mm....so it might just be up to how could you usually get Alex777 January 27th, 2012, 07:56 PM It was 82 today. lugnet January 28th, 2012, 12:36 AM As always, depends on the person. My wife, son and I were there last month and wearing very different outfits. He was in board shorts and rash, me in 3mm with beanie, and my wife was layered in Thermalution 70M heated shirt, LavaCore full suit, full 3mm Henderson and a beanie. We were doing 3 to 5 dives per day for a week. I had purchased the 70M so I could wear the 3mm and turn on the heat if I felt cold. Now my wife is getting her own 70M so I can use mine next trip. If you are doing a lot of dives every day for a week, you might want your 5mm after a few days. Hope you have great conditions and no equipment failures!
