Product Information
The AKONA Panama Rugged Dry Duffel Bag is a 60 liter, welded-seam PVC duffel built for divers who need to keep gear dry on boats, at the beach, or while traveling, and it converts from a handheld duffel to a backpack with removable shoulder straps.
Who it is for
The Panama suits divers and travelers who want one bag that can haul fins, exposure suits, and accessories to the dock, on a dive boat, or through an airport without soaking the contents. Because it converts to backpack-style carry, it also works as a hiking pack for anyone who needs a durable, easy-to-wipe-clean bag for an outdoor trip.
Key details
- Welded seam construction seals out water.
- Water-resistant zipper adds a second layer of protection for the main compartment.
- Large U-shaped opening lets you load bulky gear quickly and see everything inside.
- Removable shoulder straps let you switch between handheld duffel and backpack carry.
- 60 liter capacity in exterior dimensions of 24 inches long, 13 inches tall, and 13 inches wide.
- Weighs only 1.5 lbs, so the bag itself adds minimal weight to your packed gear.
- Built from 60L PVC material for durability and easy wipe-down cleaning.
- Backed by a limited two-year warranty.
Compatibility and sizing
The Panama is available in Heather Grey and Rugged Green so you can match it to your existing gear bag lineup or pick the color that is easiest to spot at baggage claim or on a crowded dive boat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Akona Panama duffel bag be worn as a backpack?
Yes. The Panama has removable shoulder straps that let you convert it from a handheld duffel into a backpack-style carry, which makes it easier to manage on docks, in airports, or on hiking trails to the water.
Is the Akona Panama duffel bag fully waterproof?
The Panama is water resistant rather than fully submersible. It uses welded seam construction and a water-resistant zipper to seal out water from spray, splashes, and wet boat decks, which keeps gear inside dry during normal travel and dive outings.
What colors does the Akona Panama duffel bag come in?
The Panama is available in Heather Grey and Rugged Green, so you can choose the color that matches your existing dive gear or is easiest to identify at baggage claim or on a crowded boat.
How much gear does the Akona Panama duffel bag hold?
The Panama holds 60 liters and measures 24 inches long, 13 inches tall, and 13 inches wide, giving enough room for fins, a wetsuit, and other dive accessories while weighing only 1.5 lbs empty.
