A wetsuit will help you stay comfortable and protected from the sun. And, if you&#8217;re planning on diving, a wetsuit is essential for safety.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column_e6036c-58 >

For Hawaiian waters, a 3mm wetsuit is perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"d47da68c-6176-414a-b262-d4dd1cb6cd48\">It&#8217;s thin enough that you won&#8217;t overheat, but it will still provide warmth and protection from the sun. If you&#8217;re only planning on snorkeling or surfing, you can get away with a shorter-sleeved wetsuit or a rash guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"9a6edbe1-be92-491e-835e-8362b618ca23\">But if you&#8217;re diving, you&#8217;ll need a full-length wetsuit with long sleeves and pants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"22600590-46d4-4a05-afaf-0bfa2ad44f45\">When it comes to wetsuits, you get what you pay for. A cheap wetsuit might seem like a good deal at first, but it won&#8217;t last as long and won&#8217;t be nearly as comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"22600590-46d4-4a05-afaf-0bfa2ad44f45\">I should know I&#8217;d made the mistake of buying a cheap wetsuit, which was a huge mistake. Not only did the Wetsuit fall apart after just a few uses, but it was also incredibly uncomfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"22600590-46d4-4a05-afaf-0bfa2ad44f45\">It was so tight that I could barely move my arms or legs, and the neoprene material rubbed against my skin, causing an unpleasant rash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"22600590-46d4-4a05-afaf-0bfa2ad44f45\">I quickly realized it was worth spending more on a higher-quality wetsuit. Not only did the Wetsuit last longer, but it was also much more comfortable to wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"22600590-46d4-4a05-afaf-0bfa2ad44f45\">The materials were softer and more flexible, and the fit was much more forgiving. As a result, I could enjoy my time in the water without worrying about being uncomfortable. If you&#8217;re considering buying a wetsuit, don&#8217;t skimp; go for quality over quantity. You&#8217;ll be glad you did!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ee83d761-e0b3-4f4b-933d-649e1dff4a42\">We recommend investing in a quality 3mm wetsuit from a trusted brand like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=o&#039;neill+wetsuits&amp;crid=2X6VYEA61ZDAX&amp;sprefix=O&#039;Neill+w,aps,467&amp;linkCode=sl2&amp;tag=love4travel-20&amp;linkId=4f5bc61d827eb76a4c3956ce3b11ad80&amp;language=en_US&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored\">O&#8217;Neill<\/a><\/strong> or <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=rip+curl+wetsuits&amp;crid=2QKO6461I1QOT&amp;sprefix=Rip+Curl+wetsuits,aps,313&amp;linkCode=sl2&amp;tag=love4travel-20&amp;linkId=252b093471b9cafbbe0400554bb0ac44&amp;language=en_US&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored\">Rip Curl<\/a><\/strong> for Hawaii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-gyg-widget=\"auto\" data-gyg-partner-id=\"8HF5NIK\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a wetsuit, and what does it do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"25778afe-157f-4a54-8ac1-08e8da1763b8\">A wetsuit is a type of clothing people wear when doing activities on the water. The suit is made of neoprene, a variety of synthetic rubber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"fde29ba8-16f0-4643-b301-ba9e228bba37\">Wetsuits are designed to insulate the body and prevent it from losing heat. They also protect from stings and scratches. The suit should fit snugly to be effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"c9f4cfb2-80c7-458c-a0c8-794300329abc\">When shopping for a wetsuit, selecting the proper size is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"9cae6fcd-1ff0-4ec1-acbf-cf0eec596c37\">Otherwise, the suit will not provide adequate insulation and may cause the body to lose heat. Wetsuits are typically used for surfing, scuba diving, and kayaking. In cool weather, a wetsuit can also be worn for swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you choose the right Wetsuit for your body type?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/lovefortraveling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/How-do-you-choose-the-right-Wetsuit-for-your-body-type.jpeg\" alt=\"How do you choose the right Wetsuit for your body type\" class=\"wp-image-3067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovefortraveling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/How-do-you-choose-the-right-Wetsuit-for-your-body-type.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/lovefortraveling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/How-do-you-choose-the-right-Wetsuit-for-your-body-type-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/lovefortraveling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/How-do-you-choose-the-right-Wetsuit-for-your-body-type-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p id=\"7e76d1a1-0786-46da-b10d-b807fa0b46f5\">It might be difficult to try on a wetsuit for the first time. There are so many various types and designs to select from, and it&#8217;s hard to know which is best for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"b81c2573-ab00-4995-a9d2-9613a911067e\">It should be tight against your body, with only a thin layer of water separating your skin from the neoprene. If the suit is too loose, water will circulate freely, and you will quickly lose body heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"a5b39d2e-1291-4aad-9823-3634a75d8966\">Likewise, the suit should not sag in the back or bunch up in the arms or legs. This can cause uncomfortable rubbing and chafing, making it difficult to move freely in the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"060bdaea-5383-463f-956c-d100f810dce4\">If your suit is too loose, a lot of water will be able to pass through it, leading to rapid heat loss. Additionally, a loose wetsuit can cause chafing and discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"a09c82b5-9def-4925-85a8-21881820461c\">For these reasons, ensuring that your Wetsuit fits nicely around your neck is essential. Most women also wear a swimsuit underneath their Wetsuit for warmth and a more comfortable fit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"23a23b3f-11da-4374-9e93-edd2b8cb40b1\">A wetsuit is an essential gear for any serious water sports enthusiast. Not only does it keep you warm, but it also provides protection from the elements and increases your mobility in the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"df1fc676-5227-4e6e-b04b-dc9f1ce1b08a\">However, a wetsuit that doesn&#8217;t fit properly can be more trouble than it&#8217;s worth. If it&#8217;s too loose, it will allow water to circulate and quickly cool your body. If it&#8217;s too tight, it will restrict your movement and make it difficult to swim or surf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"e06dc36f-eeef-4d10-85ed-418cec872415\">An excellent way to test the fit is to take a deep breath and see if the Wetsuit feels constricting. If it does, then it&#8217;s likely too small. You also want to ensure that the Wetsuit allows you a full range of motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"f4538c61-e464-44d1-8c17-7a407088b4a3\">Once you&#8217;ve found a wetsuit that fits well, you&#8217;ll enjoy all the benefits it offers, from improved buoyancy to increased warmth. With so many options on the market, there&#8217;s no reason not to find the perfect Wetsuit for your next surfing adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Choose a Wetsuit Thickness, Fitting, &amp; Type\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ASm5iyasR3o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are some of the best wetsuits on the market today?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"27aa7729-26b7-4f4f-918b-777fa992a85f\">When it comes to finding the best Wetsuit, there are a few things to keep in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"d732a6ee-a160-4171-8e21-99240df6f66c\">The first thing to think about is the water temperature. You&#8217;ll need a thicker wetsuit if swimming in cold water provides more insulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"88adb27a-8875-482a-b755-44c4b5621ab2\">On the other hand, if you&#8217;re swimming in warmer water, you can opt for a thinner wetsuit that will allow more flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"444f937c-8d04-434d-86cf-bcaa540af1eb\">Secondly, you&#8217;ll want to consider the type of activity you&#8217;ll be doing. If you&#8217;re planning on surfing or diving, you&#8217;ll need a wetsuit specifically designed for those activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"15acf3a4-33fa-44f5-be12-6775165630df\">Finally, you&#8217;ll want to think about your budget. Wetsuits can range in price from a few hundred dollars to over a thousand dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"3d4b8193-f34c-431a-84d8-e46d43a0c7f5\">But which one is the best? It depends on what you&#8217;re looking for. If you&#8217;re a serious surfer, you&#8217;ll want a wetsuit designed for performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"6261a799-4681-46c4-b0fb-f3e486b51b95\">A more affordable option might be acceptable for casual swimmers and sunbathers. And if you&#8217;re environmentally conscious, wetsuits are now made from recycled materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"c7c8089f-9a8a-4c33-95b2-2b6a38104fbb\">Here are just a few of the best wetsuits on the market today:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">O&#8217;Neill Reactor Short Sleeve Wetsuit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"6335a719-1205-4fe4-be15-55918b33e5d7\">O&#8217;Neill Reactor Short Sleeve Wetsuit is <strong>an excellent choice<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/ONeill-Reactor-2-Sleeve-Wetsuit-X-Large\/dp\/B0753RDWR2?crid=1KQYQQ81ARGUD&amp;keywords=O&#039;Neill+Reactor+Short+Sleeve+Wetsuit&amp;qid=1663078561&amp;sprefix=o&#039;neill+reactor+short+sleeve+wetsuit,aps,402&amp;sr=8-6&amp;linkCode=sl1&amp;tag=love4travel-20&amp;linkId=8ba441f81673c898a08b37a54d1a28ae&amp;language=en_US&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored\">(Link to Amazon)<\/a><\/strong> if you are looking for a 2mm neoprene wetsuit.

With proper care, your Wetsuit can last for years, but if you neglect it, you&#8217;ll be lucky if it lasts a season. Here are a few simple tips to help you get the most out of your Wetsuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"4bfc2322-aabe-4e7f-8bce-e76f8bb1ba77\">After each session, give your Wetsuit a thorough rinse with fresh water. This will help remove salt, sand, and other debris that can cause wear and tear. Be sure to rinse off the zipper area exceptionally well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ce712171-66b6-4bb5-956f-46cbb73521f0\">Hang your Wetsuit in a cool, ventilated area to dry. Avoid direct sunlight, which can damage the material. If possible, hang your Wetsuit inside so any moisture evaporates more quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"92e38aba-c076-4c59-9200-7348935c6a1f\">If your Wetsuit starts to develop a funk, wash it with mild soap and let it air dry thoroughly before using it again. This will help to prevent the growth of bacteria and mold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"e163296f-ccb0-46cd-86bb-c9b5dfa068c0\">With some care and attention, your Wetsuit will keep you comfortable in the waves for the seasons to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to do if you get a hole in your Wetsuit&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"78981dbd-fac8-4524-a3f9-040325231822\">Surf&#8217;s up! But wait&#8230; you&#8217;ve got a hole in your Wetsuit. Don&#8217;t worry; it happens to the best of us. Fortunately, there are a few easy ways to patch up a wetsuit so you can get back in the water as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"f03ae8a5-d582-42bc-8738-bcfdaa155903\">The first step is to clean the area around the hole with fresh water and mild soap. This will help remove any dirt or debris that could prevent the patch from adhering correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"198849ed-1ee0-4df2-9ae9-2a9da4cb204c\">Next, apply the patch to the Wetsuit&#8217;s inside, ensuring it is positioned over the hole. Once the patch is in place, use a hairdryer to heat the area around the patch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"518dd939-d1e5-49c2-8fea-7432f59f4cd8\">This will help create a strong bond between the patch and the neoprene material. Just be sure not to hold the hairdryer too close to avoid damaging the Wetsuit. And that&#8217;s it! With a few quick steps, you&#8217;ll be ready to take on those waves again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to put on a wetsuit (and take it off!)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How To Put On A Wetsuit | A Step By Step Guide\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KXE7S9ub4jI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re planning on spending any time in the water in Hawaii, whether it&#8217;s surfing, snorkeling, or diving, you&#8217;ll need a wetsuit.
