Best Travel BCDs

Review of five great travel BCDs that are lightweight and provide good features and value to a range of divers from the amateur to advanced divers.

I am a professional underwater photographer and my equipment is especially significant to me and takes lots of wear and tear. I require gear that is resilient over hundreds if not thousands of dives and as "travel" worthy as possible. There have been a quantity of wonderful new lightweight or travel [http://www.squidoo.com/workshop/best-travel-bcd-for-scuba-diving BCDs] that have been introduced in the last 3 years and I have highlighted some of my favorite ones below.

The aim of any BCD should be function first and after that comfort. The Lightweight  BCDs reviewed at this time supply a practical amount of function and along with good fit. The trade off on[http://www.squidoo.com/workshop/best-travel-bcd-for-scuba-diving  travel BCDs] is more often than not restrictions in storage pockets, lift (which is very important if you carry a lot of weight when you dive), security of your tank while you are scuba diving, D-rings for optional gear and ride when you are on the surface of the water.

The BCDs listed below give good form and function and a varying amount of optional features.  Examine the features of each and determine which best meets your needs.  I believe most divers will be happy with any of these BCDs and I would like to get your opinion as well. <strong>Great Travel BCDs</strong>
