WIN an Orca Explorer Backpack

We’ve teamed up with Orca to give readers a chance of winning one of their Explorer Backpacks – the perfect piece of kit for anyone heading off on a summer swim adventure!

Featuring a soft lumbar area, the Explorer Backpack is a comfortable companion for all your outdoor adventures. With its spacious compartments, including a designated slot for your laptop and a waterproof bag for your wetsuits, it offers unparalleled organization.

Our digital editor, Abi Whyte recently put the backpack to the test. Here’s what she said about it:

“I love taking this bag out on swim walks and swimming weekends. The bag is deceptively roomy, has a laptop sleeve at the back and lots of other spacious compartments for things like sunglasses, keys, snacks and other essentials. There are straps at the bottom so you can carry an extra towel or changing robe, plus it comes with a toiletry bag and roll-down waterproof bag for your wet kit! Another bonus is it meets carry-on luggage dimensions, so it’s perfect for swim holidays. Cleverly designed, comfortable to carry and stylish to wear – this is the ultimate swim kit bag.”
