My son, some other dad, their sons, and I got scuba certified together. After the class, we planned a trip together to go diving. The group we hired provided all of the equipment and specializes in beginners. It was a 3 day trip including two nights camping on beaches.

The information packet included a list of things to bring. Among them was this.

Bathing Suit
Most divers choose to forgo a bathing suit under their wetsuit for a superior fit. If you choose to wear a bathing suit while diving, only brief (speedo) or bikini style suits are permitted. These suit will not bunch under the wetsuit. Also note that we do not have a private space to change on the boat, so a brief is recommended if you are uncomfortable changing in front of your fellow divers.

There will be plenty of time to swim between dives, so we recommend bringing a bathing suit for swimming.

I want to write more about the trip, but it's getting late so I'll return to that later.

That's my kind of rule! Love that briefs are recommended. My friend Aaron always wears a speedo underneath his wetsuit when surfing. I would too but I don't dive or surf. Looking forward to hearing more about your trip!
