Dive Bags for Diving Equipment

SEAC Equipage 250 Bag

The SEAC Equipage is a spacious dive gear duffle bag with lots of storage space. It also has several handy compartments specifically designed for transporting scuba equipment and diving accessories.

The large robust grab handles and removable shoulder strap located on the top make it easy to lug around.

Inside, the oversized inner compartment boasts 110 litres of space, so you'll have plenty of room for a big BDC, wetsuit, and the rest of your kit.

Key Features and Technical Specifications

• Being able to carry all the equipment and accessories is a key feature of the best dive bags.
• The Equipage 250 made by SEAC measures 75 x 40 x 35 centimetres - with a total capacity of 110 liters.
• It's made of 600 denier polyester and it weighs around 1.4 kilograms.
• The U-shaped zipper closure is practical - making it easy to insert a complete set of diving equipment.
• In addition, the SEAC Equipage 250 dive bag has two (2) pockets that have been designed specifically for the needs of traveling scuba divers. The external pocket is a thin pouch with adjustable pinch clip - which is really useful for sliding a pair of diving fins inside the elongated pocket.

Pro Tip: Another advantage of the SEAC Equipage scuba bag is the separate dry lined compartment and grip protectors on the underside (including metal drainage grommets). Being able to keep some delicate dive gear in a dry section means it could be the best dive bag for air travel.
