The best advice for preparing for your dive vacation is to pack light. Keep in mind most dive vacations are in the tropics and dress is casual. Most air carriers have weight and size limitations, particularly small inter-island airlines. If you will be on a liveaboard boat you might want to consider soft luggage that can be folded and stowed, because space in your cabin may be limited.
