Is your swimwear good for surfing, swimming, and water sports?

Absolutely. Our fabric is built for performance — it’s quick-drying, chlorine- and saltwater-resistant, and retains its shape. Whether you're surfing, swimming laps, or lounging poolside, Bahía Blues bikinis and one-pieces are designed to move with you.

How do I care for my eco-friendly swimsuit?

To extend the life of your Bahía Blues swimsuit:

  • Rinse after use in saltwater or chlorine pools

  • Hand wash or machine wash cold (max 40°C)

  • Avoid bleach and fabric softeners
