Hi!

Does anyone have any idea what the water temp is in South West Dominica during early to mid August?

I know it's 'hurricane' season there, and not the prime time to visit, but we will have to make do :)

What do you suggest, a 3mm suit?

Thanks so much!!!

Happy dives to you!
 
Surface temp should be around 83, so a 3mm would be more than enough depending on how much water time you get. I wore a 3mm shorty last year and needed just a little more after a few days. Going to take my 3mm full this year.

62 days and counting... The Caribbean is calling me. :icosm07:

Thanks Hogson!

Lucky You!!! I have to wait 109 more days before having a chance to visit the sea life in Dominica. This will be our first dive there...I'll be looking for your report in early July '04 :)

How is the weather there during that time of year? Does it rain most every day? I sure hope we don't run into a hurricaine!!!
