just came back.
water is fine for boardies.
a few people were wearing 3/2 steamers to protect themselves from the coral on big crashes, but i just had shorts n a t shirt.
as stated above, reef shoes are good. but if your carefull and dont come off, you will be right.
water temp at 25mtrs is 28 degrees
water temp on the kite bay 29-30 degrees
this is the windy time for cocos.
if you need to know anything specific, just ask, as its still fresh in my head.
say hi to al and kel for me :)
