Yes, or at least it seems to. I was discussing this with another Scuba instructor and he had made a similar observation. I have no idea why or how, but many divers and surfers have made the same observation.

Possible explanations include: minerals in the sea water being adsorbed and assisting nail growth or it could be that the nails are adsorbing water and swelling slightly.

What else can I help you with?
