If you plan on spending time in cold water, a hooded wetsuit is a must. Not only will it make for a more comfortable experience overall, but it will slow heat loss down, ultimately allowing you to stay in the water longer. Hooded wetsuits are a particularly good option if the water is in the range of 35 degrees F & up, and strongly recommended in anything below that, where good exposure protection is of critical importance. The hooded wetsuits listed below are all designed to add an extra layer of warmth and protection regardless of whether you're partaking in underwater activities like scuba diving, or more surface-based activities like surfing, wakeboarding, paddling and swimming.
