Want to stay warm and toasty on a dive? Then dive dry. Yes! Unlike a wetsuit, a dry suit seals you off
from the outside water and that keeps you warm, allowing you to dive more challenging dive sites!
On completing this course you can take advantage of the generally better visibility offered by winter
months—especially at inland dive sites such as quarries, lakes, sinkholes and caves.
