Why You Need Waterproof Dry Bags for Kayaking & Canoeing

Water knows no mercy — splashes, waves and unexpected swamps are all part of the adventure. A high-quality dry bag is essential for keeping your valuables, clothes and supplies waterproof while you paddle. Salty Kit dry bags are IPX66 rated for strong water resistance — and when sealed correctly they’ll handle splashes, spray and quick dunks.

  • ✔️ Strong roll top keeps your gear dry
  • ✔️ Protects spare clothes and snacks from water ingression
  • ✔️ Floats when sealed — easier to recover if dropped
  • ✔️ Easy to clean after muddy river trips
  • ✔️ Lightweight design won’t weigh you down
  • ✔️ Detachable straps for secure attachment to boats and packs
