The Best Waterproof Dry Bag For Adventurous Vacations
Keep your gear safe and your excursions stress-free by carrying one of these advantageous accessories.
If you go on an adventure, getting wet is part of the deal. Sudden rainstorms, transiting rivers, kayaking, you name it. But just because you get doused doesn't mean your stuff has to, as long as you've got a good dry bag. Here's what to look for.

Start with the basics, with a bag made of something light, tough, and easy to coat, such as nylon, with double-stitched and taped seams to keep water out.

Size also matters, as, remember, you'll need to roll the top three times to make the bag watertight, so budget space inside accordingly.

Next check the design, such as backpack or duffel, to make sure it's usable on your trip.

Also useful will be multiple anchor points that will allow you to tie the bag to the side of buildings, clip on straps and handles, and otherwise make it easier to use.

Finally, don't forget useful extras, like a phone case, to help keep you organized and water out of your stuff.
