I am wondering whether in your studies you have ever come accross an explanation for the skin irritation that diving sans diving suit into a blue hole might be. Last year three fellow adventurers faced a bit of a skin rash after diving two blue holes in Andros. I have heard legends of the water being cursed and the like but I was wondering if the reaction was a chemical. Thanks.
