Even if your phone is "waterproof" we recommend keeping it in a case, with a lanyard attached to your PFD so it won't be lost at sea.

The Vaikobi Waterproof Phone Case lets you carry and use your phone while you’re on the water. Designed to keep your device safe from water, sand, and dust, it gives you the confidence to paddle, sail, or explore without leaving your phone behind. With a clear touchscreen window and secure attachment system, you can take photos, check maps, or make a call - then get straight back to your session. Available in bright colours to match your Vaikobi PFD, which Vaikobi waterproof phone case will you choose?

How Does It Fit?

WARNING: Ensure the pouch is securely closed before exposure to water. Vaikobi is not liable for damage to personal items due to improper use or failure to correctly seal the pouch. Not designed for prolonged submersion or deep-water use. Avoid exposure to high temperatures and sharp objects. The effectiveness of the pouch may decrease over time due to normal wear and tear.

*At the Kayak Shop we actually recommend lark's-foot loop attaching your phone case to the strap of your lifejacket and tucking it between your body & the life jacket - so it won't get crunched if you capsize and clamber chest-first back onto your paddlecraft...

** When measuring your phone for fit take into account the thickness of the phone**
