Find Your Perfect Wetsuit
Explore our complete wetsuits collection for surfing, swimming, and other watersports
Wetsuits for South Florida's warm water, where thin neoprene and breezy springsuits beat heavy winter steamers nearly all year. This collection covers men, women, boys and girls with jackets, vests, springsuits and fullsuits from Rip Curl, O'Neill, Xcel, Vissla, Roxy, Quiksilver and Florence Marine X. We fit local surfers for these conditions every season.
For our climate, the most-worn options are light: 1.5mm and 2mm wetsuit jackets and vests (Rip Curl Dawn Patrol, O'Neill Hyperfreak, Florence Marine X), 2/2mm and 2/1mm springsuits, and 3/2mm fullsuits like the Vissla 7 Seas, Xcel Axis and Roxy Syncro for the coldest mornings. Chest-zip, back-zip and zip-free entry are all here.
What wetsuit thickness do I need in Florida?
Most of the year a 1.5mm or 2mm jacket, vest or springsuit is plenty for South Florida water. For the coolest winter mornings, a 2/2mm springsuit or a 3/2mm fullsuit keeps you comfortable. A full winter steamer is rarely needed here.
What is the difference between a springsuit and a fullsuit?
A springsuit has short or long sleeves with short legs for warmer water and more mobility, like the Rip Curl Dawn Patrol springsuits. A fullsuit covers arms and legs in thicker neoprene, such as a 3/2mm steamer, for cooler conditions.
What does 3/2mm mean on a wetsuit?
It means 3mm neoprene around the core for warmth and 2mm in the arms and legs for flexibility. It is the warmest fullsuit weight most South Florida surfers ever need.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How to choose the wetsuit thickness?
The ideal wetsuit thickness depends on the water temperature where you'll be using it. We offer cold water wetsuits (below 54°F), warm water wetsuits (54°F - 68°F), and tropical wetsuits (68°F+) to ensure you stay comfortable in various conditions.
What to wear under a wetsuit?
Wear what feels comfortable under your wetsuit, based on the activity, water temperature and personal preference. Many choose to wear nothing (commando) for a snug fit, while others opt for a swimsuit, board shorts, or a rash guard to reduce chafing and provide extra coverage. In colder conditions, consider a thermal layer (like neoprene leggings or a vest) to stay warm.
What type of wetsuit is best for surfing?
Surfing wetsuits prioritize flexibility and core stability for paddling, popping up, and maneuvering on your board. They typically have a thinner neoprene layer in the arms and shoulders for unrestricted movement while maintaining warmth in your core.
Can I use a surf wetsuit for other water sports?
Absolutely! Surf wetsuits are versatile and can be used for a variety of water sports including diving, snorkeling, paddleboarding, and more. They provide flexibility, buoyancy, and thermal protection, making them suitable for any activity in cold water conditions.
