I want to swim in the ocean and do bodyboarding... can I go now?

Question

I live in MD and it says the temps are 48-50 degrees in the water. I want to start practicing my bodyboarding but the water is cold. Will a wetsuit be the answer to my problem? If I wore a wetsuit, could I actually go do that stuff right now while theres no crowds of people?

Answer 1

Ask someone who lives in that area...

Answer 2

with a wet suit ofcourse you can. wet suit protects your body from water entering your body, but heres the bad part, wet suits dont cover feet or your face, so its something youll have to deal with. i think the have like wet suits for feet out there

Answer 3

Vapor 3/2mm, Body Glove wetsuit would be ideal! I live on the west coast, and our currant comes from the north. Therefore even in the summer the water at 4 or 5am is freezing! Wetsuit is the answer! :) Enjoy!
