Shortie wetsuit or dive skins for Little Cayman?

[RN EMT-P]

I just returned yesterday from LC. I dove in a full 3mm suit and was actually cold a couple of times until the weather warmed up into the 80s which helped between dives. Others on the boat wore full or shorties but noone was in just a swim suit (which is what I dove in there in July when the water was closer to 85).

I went in October and I only wore skins. I get cold easily, but I have to say I was very comfortable diving in skins at Little Cayman. When the boat was moving, I did peel my skins off and sit in my suit and shorts in the sun and was just fine. At night, I wore a light jacket and light running slacks to dinner as the dining room was fairly cold to me. Have fun!!!

Great - thanks for the input. We will definitely bring the wetsuits, and the dive skins, too (assuming they get here in time - I'm tracking the UPS shipment from Leisure Pro....looks like it got as far as Newark Airport before the blizzard shut everything down - I hope it makes it to the west coast in a few days!).
