This wiki has been updated 17 times since it was first published in February of 2019. When it comes to scuba diving and snorkeling, your method of transporting the required equipment is quite important. The gear is not usually cheap, so you’ll want to invest in a quality duffel to protect everything before you travel to your next outing. They come in various styles, from lightweight mesh bags to heavy-duty rolling cases. When users buy our independently chosen editorial selections, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

Editor's Notes

February 11, 2019:

Aside from a few complaints that the heft of the Tusa Roller can make it difficult to use for air travel when it’s loaded with a large amount of gear, it’s a resilient, well-organized duffel that should last for years. Looked into including the Cressi Gorilla on the list, but reports indicate that its durability — from the zippers to the clasps and the base — leaves much to be desired. At less than two pounds in weight, the Sak Gear ScubaSak was one of the lightest options available.
