I know there must be a ton of areas where you can actually swim out to rocks but IMO the majority of wetsuiters use wetsuit's to they're advantage just by being able to take surf over the shoulder/head or very short swim's to near by rocks. Its safe and makes a big difference.

Too many times I've read westsuit posts/threads that you really need to read through the BS. Just because you own a wetsuit doesn't mean you been given fish-like ablities. All the modern gear in the world does give you an advantage but you'll always come up short in the confidence department. There is no tool that will take away fear of hights without climbing more often. Hook up with guys who are more experienced and know they're quary. I watch all ther extreme sports that make a short swim in the dark look like a walk in a cemetery.
