WATER TEMPERATURE
Ocean water temperatures rarely vary beyond 27
to 30 Degree Celsius although thermo clines can sometimes be experienced t
depths below 20 meters. During hot periods, water temperatures inside the
lagoon increases measurably, influencing water temperatures inside the
Atolls. during these periods most divers are comfortable diving without a
wet-suit, although those of slight build may shiver a little. During
overcast periods with wind and rain squalls, it is wise to carry extra
clothing on the boat after a dive. Lycra and 3mm wetsuits are popular in
tropical waters but some divers prefer a 5mm suit if doing more than one
dive a day.
