Nurul Aini –
Used the Mares Cruise Backpack Dry for my last dive trip to Tioman, and everything stayed perfectly dry despite heavy rain on the boat. The padded straps made it comfortable even when it was packed full. Really impressed with the quality.

Wei Ling Tan –
Is the external pocket on the Mares Cruise Backpack Dry completely waterproof, or just splash-proof? Planning to keep my phone in there.
Junhao Lo –
Hello Wei Ling, the external pocket is water-resistant but not fully waterproof. For electronics like your phone, we recommend using a dedicated waterproof pouch inside the main compartment for maximum protection.
Rajiv Menon –
The backpack is huge and fits all my dive gear easily, but it can get heavy when fully loaded. The sternum strap really helps balance the weight, though. Construction feels super solid.
Junhao Lo –
