Red Sea November

[hammerheads]

Im of to Sharm for two weeks in November, my question is as follows

Ive always been to Sharm to before in May to September and have always been more than comfortable in a 3mm Shorty at depths up to 40 metres.

Will i be likely notice much of a difference in water temp by going in November I have looked on annual temp sites and they say an average of 23 degrees which seems pretty warm to me.

Does anyone think I will need to move up to a full suit or will chucking a rash vest in case suffice.

All advice kindly welcomed

For November, I always take my membrane drysuit - it can get windy and that can freeze you after the dives.

Disclaimer - I have my own 'bioprene' suit.

But I wear shorts n t-shirt until mid Nov, then move to a shortie for the winter.

I've only been there in november and I always take my full suit. It's also worth taking some kind of windbreaker jacket that you can chuck on if its a shortish surface interval.

Very first time I was in Sharm was the first week in December.

I was toasty in a 5mm wetsuit nearly all week until the second/third dives on the last 2 days when I guess I was getting a bit knackered. Felt a bit cool then but luckily had chucked in an old hood and stupid as it looked, wearing the 5mm and hood on the later dives was perfect.
