Hey everyone,
This is great! I'm a plus sized woman about to travel to the Dominican Republic October 26th. I plan to go scuba diving for the first time. I called the resort I'll be staying with the confirm that they would not have a wet suit in my size and of course they don't so then I went on a long journey to find a wet suit in my size that wasn't going to require me to take out a bank loan to pay for (*Smile*).
I'm a size 26 pants and top heavy (DDDs) and 5'3". I ended up getting a mens XXL shorty wet suit that fits fine. I got the men's 3mm shorty red. Best Scuba Online also has full wesuits for $54.95 and free shipping.
Cost me $39.95 from:
Best Scuba Online
Now I'm on a quest to find a swim suit with more coverage. I plan to do some wind surfing and snorkeling as well and may not want to use my wet suit while doing that so I decided to look for a swimsuit unitard where there the bottom part is longer like shorts. But the speedo one has those awful u-back straps that never stay in place when you have rounded shoulders and the Dolphin/Ocean unitard is out of stock everywhere. hahahahah So I decided to order it as seperates. Junonia has a part of swim shorts that are pretty cool and I'm just going to order a mens dive skin shirt for the top part. I'm hoping that should do the trick.
Peace,
