i've seen people wear shorties, but my husband always just wore a t-shirt. some folks bring a sweatshirt to wear in the boat.

From what I've been told many who go don't wear one...I'm planning on doing 2-3 dives a day and WILL bring mine. Don't know about you but if the water is 72 at the Blue Hole thats gonna chill me. I'm so use to diveing with my suit I'd feel strange without it. I use a 3mm shorty for islands like AC and a 5mm for some of the other climates. I'm one of those better safe than sorry kind of divers tho. If ya plan on snorkeling mostly you might just want to rent one there for the days you plan on diveing alot. My info comes from a local diver here in Va who has extensive time in the Belize area. He suggested I bring mine. Mark...27 days and counting....
Life May Be a Beach...I prefer Reefs...

my 1 mm was great in the hole (165'+), a skin is best most of the time, polartec if you tend to get chilly.
alot of the dives on the outer cayes (if you want the best diving)are at 70-80 ft refer to your comfort level at 79-81 degrees (F)
have fun......

i am giving my husband's opinion here. he chose not to do the blue hole, as it is a long ride for 8 minutes bottom time. he instead dove turneffee atoll, and it was his best dives ever. 2 dives, i think 45 ft, both with multiple dolphins. he said you hear "click click" and turn around and there they are. they dont touch you but swim all around you. then they followed the boat back. he said it was the dive of a lifetime.
