- Surface temps in the upper 70's/low 80's.
- Mild thermocline starting at about 20'
- Water temps at my max. depth of 111' at about 55 degrees F. Hood and gloves recommended (unless you really like ice cream headaches!).
- I wore a 7mm with a hooded vest, and was toasty warm.
- If you are planning to dive shallow (say less than 50'), you could probably get away without a hood and gloves - but that is a personal preference. Several people were in shorties.
- Dove fairly early yesterday morning, and not too many other divers. Visibility was stirred up as usual around the guidelines down to about 40 feet. Going beyond the fiberglass boat, Bones family, and past the Cattle Gate into the "Haunted Forest", the vis cleared up considerably. Carried my HID can light, but more for signaling than anything.
Hope you find this useful!
Dive Safe!
