For paddleboarding, surfing or swimming, the best swimsuit is one that lets you ride the waves in comfort.
Whether you prefer a one-piece, a bikini or a mix-and-match combo of boardshorts and a tankini, MEC offers a range of suits for active women headed to the beach or open water. Look for flat seams, quality materials, and designs that are cut to move from brands including Carve Designs, Level Six and Speedo.
The reflective surface of open water greatly increases UV exposure. The breathable fabrics used in rashguards and sun-protective swimwear allow you to stay covered up without overheating or having to reapply sunscreen. If you’re a performance paddler, dragon boater or kayaker, opt for styles that are cut loose through the arms and shoulders to allow a range of movement. Full-sleeve tops with raglan sleeves are another great choice for performance-oriented swimwear.
High-tech fabrics that incorporate materials like PBT thermoplastic resists damage from chlorine and salt water. The fabrics are resilient enough to suit swimmers who are in the pool multiple times a week. Triathlon suits are cut to reduce drag and to retain their shape and elasticity. For colder days, a suit with a layer of neoprene adds buoyancy and insulation as well as solid sun-protection to safely extend your outdoor training sessions. MEC also carries full-length and shorty wetsuits, kids’ wetsuits and neoprene accessories for ocean paddlers and cold-water swimmers.
As environmental concerns grow, swimwear brands like [Prana] (/en/products/watersports/watersports-clothing/swimwear?brand=Prana&gender=womens) and Patagoniaare responding by sourcing materials that have a high percentage of recycled content and bluesign-approved materials. Their aim is to reduce their impact on the world's lands and waterways while maintaining high performance standards.
