Why dive dry? – simply to stay warm. No one said diving had to be cold or wet.
Diving dry is the difference between withstanding the 40°F (4°C) temperature of some waters to enjoy watching a three-inch scallop's
beadlike eyes spangle the edges of a brightly coloured mantle.
It is the difference in witnessing the powerful
jaws and massive grinding teeth in a mouth of a wolf eel, hovering-by as a giant octopus propels itself by
jetting water past its eight sucker-covered arms, or simply not diving at all. More often than not, in colder waters, dry suit diving can be the difference between experiencing multiple dives in one day or making one
chilly wet suit dive and listening to others tell you about what you've missed on the dives you were just too
cold to make.
