Robert,

Diving in the Coral Sea is diving in very warm water and the air is very
warm. You will be able to dive in a short 3mm wetsuit and not get cold.
There is also the problem of putting on a dry suit 4 to 5 times a day and
getting very hot before you get into the water. If you decide to take your
dry suit I recommend that you take your 3mm wet suit with you as well as you
will be using it on the second - third-.......  days.


cheers

frank

I may go on a 7 day dive in the Coral Sea in August. The water temp will be
72 degrees near the surface. This is purley a vacation dive. I wanted to
bring my TLS-350 because if I do four dives in a day I would rather not get
back into a cold/wet wetsuit. The only wetsuit I own is a 3mm two piece --
so if I wanted to dive wet I would need to buy a 5mm. I think diving dry is
just good for practice but diving wet has its own feeling of pleasure. Does
anyone have any thoughts on this?
