Wetsuits and Urination

Urinating in a wetsuit is common for many recreational divers and is generally not harmful when exposure is limited. Immersion in water, especially cold water, triggers immersion diuresis, which shifts blood into the central circulation and increases urine production. Most divers feel that urge within minutes of entering the water.

In search of beavers, my colleagues and I followed the Cap-Chat River on Quebec’s Gaspé Peninsula to a village of immaculate, steep-roofed houses that shares the river’s name. Near the village a red- and white-striped gate blocked the road, and a forbidding sign read, “Zone d’Exploitation Contrôlée.”
