Backpacks will always be an essential travel accessory and, as such, travelers will always be on the lookout for the latest and best backpacks. For daytrips, a backpack needs to be large enough to fit necessities, but still small and lightweight. Usually on a daytrip travelers carry their bags for the duration of the day because there is no hotel or hostel to check into and drop it off. Users also need plenty of pockets and space for all the necessities and any extra things they choose to bring along. For these reasons, shopping for the perfect daytrip bag is difficult.

 

This Patagonia Lightweight Travel Tote Pack  is perfect for a long day out. It works as both a backpack and tote bag so users can choose how they wish to carry their bag. It’s made of lightweight material and also tear- and weather-resistant. The main opening is a 22-liter size, making it spacious. This pack would work well as an overnight bag.

This backpack from popular brand Osprey is perfect for any daytrip. It’s small, compact and perfect for a day of exploring a city or jungle. It’s $50 and offered in many different color options. It has tuck-away shoulder straps to keep the weight of the bag solely on the shoulders and a mesh-covered back panel to keep your back cool and prevent sticking.

For a day pack with a little more space, this backpack is built specifically for women. It’s a lightweight bag designed with comfort in mind. It’s a great backpack for hikers only doing day hikes or trying to hike with less equipment. It’s a 22-liter size and has multiple pockets available for use.

No, it’s not Monterey Bay. We’re talking Morro Bay, California, located about a 2.5-hour drive to the south, about halfway between San Jose and Los Angeles. A quieter destination, Morro Bay offers plenty for the outdoor adventurer to enjoy.
