Combating Frigid Waters

Author: DiveMaster

scuba-gearDiving in Puget Sound can seem like a chore. Although there is certainly an abundance of underwater wildlife, the water rarely warms up, even in the summer. Many people won’t even consider taking the plunge into the Sound’s icy waters.

But for others, the underwater sights are worth the brief discomfort caused by the cold water. If you are one of these adventurous types, it is imperative to have the proper Scuba gear. One way to have a more enjoyable diving experience is to wear a dry suit. When you wear a dry suit most of your body is not actually getting wet. Your core temperature stays higher and you can dedicate more attention toward enjoying the underwater scenery.
