    Hedo II: December Dive Temperature

    What is the typical water temp found at Hedo II in December (less than 76 degree F)?
    I get a contact dermatitis / allergy using neoprene.
    I will pack a dive skin, but should I expect to pack more insulation?

    Even in December it is around 85 degrees. I usually wear a shortie wetsuit because I don't like being cold at all but you will be fine without it.

    I use a lycra suit or just a tee shirt and swim trunks, as it's way warm to me. Hawaii is 76 degrees and the Carib is definately warmer.
    I'm not as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was.

    If you have concerns about the cold or stings and are looking for non-neoprene protection consider a tropical drysuit

    Whites and DUI make a tropical drysuits
    other companies make them as well.

    ***get instruction to use it correctly
