This time of year, the water should be in upper 70s. I wore a 5mm long last time and felt fine. Use our scuba earth page to find dive sites in NC and click a few to see what the summer temp is.

We are going to be there mid-August. I am planning on diving a 3mm with a hooded corewarmer. So, I will be about 6 at the core and the hood is a 5. My buddy is seriously considering his DUI and going dry. I havent quite gotten there yet. Just checked the bouys in the area and the water temp is currently running 79f. Have fun!

I usually am fime with a 3 mil there that time of year but pack a hooded vest to add in case of an up-welling although you usually don’t find out about them until after the giantstride :(
