Bottom Line

Made of ultra-light nylon, this is the only compressible bodyboard bag out there. Holds two boards up to 44 inches.

Pros

When compressed, can fit into a backpack pocket. Grand total of three exterior pockets (two dry and one mesh). Backpack straps convert into a shoulder strap.

Cons

Not padded so not recommended for airline travel unless extra measures are taken to protect boards.

Bottom Line

Basically an all-in-one beach and bodyboard bag. Holds up to two 46-inch boards or one 48-inch board.

Pros

This bag is big. Lots of room for your beach gear: large bottom pocket, mesh top pocket, inside cellphone pocket—and an umbrella holder that doubles as a cup holder.

Cons

On the pricier side. There are less expensive options if you're looking for a more streamlined bag for just your board.
