    Warm. It is on the southern coast of Puerto Rico, west of Ponce. Great walls and great diving there.

    That being said, that doesn't imply that all you need is a lycra suit to dive there at this time of year, particularly at depth. Check with your instructor and discuss water temps this time of year at the location of your dive.

    Always pack heavier wetsuits than expected...!

    You can test the tanks you breathe or - dive on hope.
    Testing is safer...


    Great news for vacation divers who cannot talk themselves into buying a personal CO tank tester!

    >> Rent one for a week or longer here <<
    Now let's see more CO readings in your trip reports, ok...??

    When I was there at the end of December, the water was 80 degrees! I wore a 3mm and I was fine.
