    Any suggestions on the best option here or that I haven't thought of? For the case where you will just be a few feet under water 99% of the time and so a BCD would be massive overkill. All of these prices do not include the actual weights, which in my case must be coated or otherwise sealed...

    Wetsuit for Scuba + Free diving

    Hi, I'm into both scuba and free diving, but at this point I don't do enough of either of them to justify buying one wetsuit for each.
