Products / Technology

Normally, water activities and electronics do not go hand in hand. However, with Dry Pak’s waterproof electronics cases, this mutual exclusivity is no more. These travel accessories allow vacationers to use their technology in the water and perform luxuries typically reserved for dry land — anything from calling a significant other while relaxing in a resort pool to taking photos of a coral reef.

The nine-inch by 12-inch Clear Tablet Case ($29.99) comes complete with a built-in earphone jack for listening to videos or music. For the more traditional traveler, this pack can also be used to keep maps or food dry.

The four-inch by six-inch Cell Phone, GPS, MP3 Case ($14.99) is perhaps the most useful piece in the waterproof travel series. This accessory allows the user to stay connected to family, friends and social media no matter how wet the environment. Purchase of this product includes a free anodized aluminum carabiner and neck lanyard.

The six-inch by five-inch by two-inch Camera Case ($15.99) is made of a clear, thermoplastic polyurethane material that allows the user to take high-quality photos without having to remove the camera. Included is an adjustable camera strap.

Sail on a Recently Revamped Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship

At one point, the Royal Caribbean Oasis-class ships were the largest in the world. While that’s not the case any longer (other Royal Caribbean ships have surpassed them), these ships are still pretty impressive — and, with recent renovations, they’re becoming even more so, as can be seen with the revamped Allure of the Seas. Ready to set sail in April 2025 with a bevy of new features, the ship is getting a $100 million makeover.
