<p>I'm soon to embark on a chilly scuba dive around 5-7C at 18m, of which we'll be wearing 7mm semi-drys with shorties. The next thickest I think is actually a <em>drysuit</em> for really cold waters, but not sure if there is a thicker <em>wetsuit</em>. However this got me thinking then about diving in warmer temperatures as well as colder.</p>

<p>For what temperatures would you wear different thicknesses of wetsuit, including none, and shorties?</p>

<p>Edit: We did drysuit in the end for these temps.</p>
