we will be in bonaire in May and was wondering if a shorty is sufficient, or would it be wise to take a dive skin also.

Gary, it depends on the diver. We go every May and October for 2wks at a crack. In May 82-84d, in Oct 84-86d. We dive alot and we wear 3mm full suits all the time.

I go every April/May. I am comfortable in a 2mm full, my wife needs a 5/3, and one dive buddy is toasty in a swim suit and T shirt. The water temps are usually around 81-82. You need to plan for YOUR comfort level. As Ron mentioned, better to have it and not need it than the opposite. Have a great trip!

thanks for the feedback, think I am leaning toward a shorty and dive skin.
