A friend said it doesn't occur to him that people dive in winter until I visit. OF COURSE WE DIVE IN WINTER! The water was seventy-five degrees and the air temperature was seventy-seven. I have to watch out to not be sun-burned! In my five mm wetsuit with a 3mm hooded vest I don't even begin to be cold after an hour in the water (and I'm a whimp when it comes to cold). Gorgeous day in the water with three Discover Scuba students. I think the eighteen-year-old was just as excited as the eleven-year-old as we saw the polkadot batfish, bandtail searobin, octopus, and spotted eagle ray. What a beautiful way to be introduced to diving! Yes, it is winter, but the diving is fabulous. Get in the water, Ham
