I think you will find 3 flavours of travel divers:
- own and bring all gear
- own but only bring some gear (mask regs computer)
- Don't bring anything, rent it all
Choose what works for you.
From a packing perspective scuba gear is just luggage.
Yeah I probably fall into the own but only bring some gear category. I'm sure after more dives/trips, I'll have a better feel of what I need to bring myself and what I can get away with renting. I realize that all the scuba gear is just extra luggage, which is why I posed the question. I like to travel with minimal gear as possible, and having to lug around an extra luggage just for gear doesn't seem appealing, but may be necessary. Only one way to find out...
