Diving FAQ For Would-be DiversSomewhere for those of you who have never dived before or who are interested but not sure about starting to ask all those nagging questions about every aspect of diving and what is involved in getting qualified
I know that I sweat before getting into the water. Once you're in, who knows? If you get too warm you can let some water in to cool off. If you're too cold, nothing you can do till the next dive.
BTW...peeing in the suit does not really warm you up. It may seem to warm you for a moment, but that heat quickly dissipates and you have lost it from your body.

Above water, in the heat of the summer you will REALLY sweat in a wetsuit. In fact, they will tell you to leave the top of your suit down (if possible) until the last few minutes before you get geared up to enter the water. A lot of divers have suffered from heat exhaustion from wearing the wetsuit (out of the water) and not staying cool. We (as Rescue Divers, Divemasters and Instructors) are taught to look for signs of heat distress when we're at a dive site.
As MgicTwnger mentioned, if you get too warm in the water, just open the neck of the suit a bit and let some water in. That'll cool you down pretty quick.
