In reply to Exile:
I've always taken a winter thick (min 4-5mm neoprene) wetsuit (plus bootees cos my feet cramp otherwise) in April or November. And I have never been cold even tho the water is usually pretty nippy in early April after the cool winter.
Generally, I spend the best part on hour in the water and often in some of the deeper channels swimming between the islands or snorkeling between underwater caverns. If you spend less time out in the open water, then you might getaway with a lighter suit plus swimvest.
