Hi Alex,

thanks for dropping by.

Yep, 26°C+ sounded wonderful to us too, coming from diving in 12°C here in Adelaide.

It was interesting, however, that after 18+ dives we were finding it a little on the cool side after an hour in the water.

We decided that 30°C+ would be the ideal temperature for one hour dives in 3mm wetsuits.

Nothing like a bit of analysis to identify perfect dive conditions!
