Imagine arriving at the beach, getting onto a boat or heading out for the day with your phone, passport, wallet and a few other essentials packed away. You know everything is somewhere in the bag, but finding one small item usually means opening it and searching through everything else.
That is the problem behind the Vista Dry Bag.
We wanted a compact waterproof bag that made it easier to see and organise what you carry. The transparent window lets you quickly check what is inside without unpacking the bag, while the rectangular shape makes it easier to pack alongside other gear.
The 3L Vista is the smaller option in the range. It is designed for the essentials you want to keep protected without carrying a larger bag than necessary. Use it on its own when you only need a few things, or use it inside a backpack or larger bag to keep smaller gear together and easy to find.
IS THIS THE RIGHT PRODUCT FOR YOU?
The Vista 3L is designed for people who want compact waterproof storage with better visibility and organisation.
GREAT CHOICE IF
- You mainly carry small essentials such as a phone, wallet, passport and keys.
- You want to quickly see what is inside your dry bag.
- You prefer a compact bag that does not take up unnecessary space.
- You want to keep small electronics, documents or valuables together and protected.
- You use several bags and want to identify the contents quickly.
- You want a small waterproof bag for beach days, travel and adventures around water.
- You want to organise smaller items inside a larger backpack or travel bag.
- You prefer the rectangular shape of the Vista over a traditional round dry bag.
CONSIDER A DIFFERENT BAG IF
- You regularly carry a larger camera, drone or several items at the same time. The Vista 5L Window Dry Bag gives you more space while keeping the same transparent window and rectangular shape.
- You only need protection for your phone and want to use it while it stays inside the pouch. The DryTide Waterproof Phone Pouch is a better fit.
- You mainly carry cash, cards and ID and want something smaller than a dry bag. The DryTide Waterproof Wallet takes up less space.
- You need room for clothing, towels or larger amounts of gear. A larger DryTide dry bag will be more suitable.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
SEE WHAT'S INSIDE
There is no need to unpack the bag just to check whether your passport, power bank or phone is inside. The transparent Vista window lets you see the contents from the outside, making it easier to find what you need. This is particularly useful when you carry several dry bags or use the Vista inside a larger backpack. The transparent material can also allow touchscreen use when a compatible phone is positioned behind the window.
✓ Transparent viewing window
✓ Touchscreen-compatible window surface
KEEP YOUR SMALL ESSENTIALS DRY
Your phone, passport, wallet and other small essentials are often the things you least want exposed to water. The Vista 3L gives them their own waterproof space when rain, splashes, wet gear or sandy surroundings become part of the day. The bag uses heavy-duty PVC and welded construction instead of traditional stitched seams. When the roll-top is properly closed, it helps keep water out while protecting the things inside from rain, splashes, sand and dirt.
✓ Waterproof PVC construction
✓ Fully welded waterproof seams
✓ Roll-top closure
PACK SMALL GEAR MORE EASILY
Traditional dry bags are usually round, which works well for many things but is not always the easiest shape for packing smaller items. The Vista uses a rectangular shape that makes it easier to organise and stack inside backpacks, travel bags and other luggage. It is also better suited to certain rectangular items such as documents, compact electronics and small cameras.
✓ Rectangular bag shape
✓ Flat sides for easier packing
✓ 3L flexible main compartment
EASY TO CARRY OR ATTACH
A small dry bag should not become inconvenient when you need to move around. The Vista 3L includes a removable shoulder strap for carrying it over your shoulder. The attachment loops at the top can also be used to clip or tie the bag to other gear when needed. Remove the strap when you are using the bag inside a backpack, or keep it attached when you want to carry the Vista on its own.
✓ Removable shoulder strap
✓ Top attachment loops
✓ Lightweight 200 g design

WHICH DRY BAG SHOULD I CHOOSE?
Different dry bags solve different problems. The right size depends not only on how many litres you need, but also on the shape of the gear you carry and how easily you want to find it.
The examples below are intended to give you a better idea of what each size can hold. Depending on the size and shape of the items, not everything listed will fit at the same time.

Need something smaller?
If you only need waterproof protection for a phone or a few valuables, a Waterproof Phone Bag or Waterproof Wallet may be more practical than a dry bag.
SEE IT IN ACTION
The video shows the larger Vista 5L. It has the same design and features as the Vista 3L, including the ability to float when properly closed with sufficient air inside. However, the bag shown in the video is larger than this 3L version.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is the Vista 3L Window Dry Bag really waterproof?
Yes. The Vista 3L uses heavy-duty PVC and fully welded construction, so there are no stitched seam holes for water to pass through. The roll-top must be closed correctly to provide waterproof protection. Roll the top down tightly at least three times, bend the ends in the opposite direction to the roll and buckle them together.
How much can the 3L dry bag actually hold?
The 3L Vista is designed for small essentials and compact gear. Depending on the shape of the items, it can hold things such as a phone, wallet, passport, keys, power bank, sunglasses, compact camera or a T-shirt. It can also fit a DJI Mini 5 Pro with its controller. It is smaller than the Vista 5L, so several larger items may not fit at the same time.
Does the Vista 3L float?
Yes, it can float when properly closed and when sufficient air is trapped inside the bag. Flotation depends on how the bag is packed and closed. Keep in mind that the Vista is not designed for prolonged underwater use. Watch it float in the See it in action section above.
Can I use my phone through the transparent window?
The transparent window allows you to see your phone without opening the bag, and the touchscreen can be used through the window. Touchscreen performance can vary depending on the phone model, screen protector and how the phone is positioned inside the bag.
Can the Vista 3L be submerged underwater?
No. The Vista 3L is designed to protect your gear from rain, splashes and wet conditions, but it is not intended for prolonged underwater use. Water pressure can slowly force water through a roll-top closure during submersion. Very brief submersion should be fine, but the bag is not designed or recommended for underwater use.
How do I clean the dry bag?
Rinse the bag with fresh water after use and let it air dry. After using it in saltwater, rinse it thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt residue. Keep solvents and insect repellents away from the bag.
