ProDive had free Nitrox upgrade last time I was there and when you are diving 3-4 dives a day this upgrade...

    Water temperature difference between ocean and cenotes

    I agree with Tailspin - I am one that will wear a full 3mm for the Ocean and a full 5 for the Cenotes and I am very comfortable in both. I love the fresh water rinse as well. Enjoy the Cenotes.
