BEST SWIMSUITS TO PACK ON A FAMILY VACATION

While finding swimwear you love seems like a pretty simple task, tracking down the right suits for a family vacation can be a little trickier. You want to feel your most comfortable and confident self of course. But you also need a bikini or one-piece bathing suit that provides an appropriate amount of coverage and support. Luckily, we’ve done the hard part for you and found the best bikini and women's one piece bathing suit options for your upcoming family getaway. Will you opt for a high waisted bikini, a bandeau top and matching bottoms, or a classic black one piece swimsuit you’ll want to wear for countless summers to come? No matter which you choose, we guarantee it’ll be your most stylish family vacation to date…

THE ZABEL TUBE ONE PIECE SWIMSUIT

Jetting off to sunnier climes with your family can be pretty different to vacationing with your partner or a group of friends. Especially when it comes to the way you spend your time together. For example, whilst you and your significant other might choose to spend the day relaxing by the pool, strolling along the beach, and heading out for romantic dinners, days with family are often a little more spirited. That means your swimwear needs to hold its own and keep you feeling comfortable whether you’re playing together on the beach, swimming in the sea, or heading out early for a full day of sightseeing.

With that in mind, we highly recommend adding the Zabel Tube one piece swimsuit to the top of your packing list. This stunning full coverage swimsuit features a striking yet simple design with adjustable asymmetric straps for the perfect fit. It’s also doubled for sheer protection, offers UV protection, and boasts four way stretch fabric for ultimate comfort and durability when you’re on the go. There’s also no need to worry about ruining your new cute swimsuit as it’s resistant to sun cream and oil too. Oh, and did we mention it comes in six irresistible colorways? Take your pick from Nero black, Powder pink, Mosaico beige, Aqua blue, burgundy red, or our unique coral print. You’ll be thrilled you packed this versatile one piece bathing suit whichever shade you opt for.

 

THE KUMANOMI CUP TOP AND HIGH WAIST BOTTOMS

If you’re looking for a bikini that perfectly combines style and comfort (who isn’t?), the Kumanomi cup top and high waist bottoms are perfect for you. First, the adjustable Koraru signature double strap will have you feeling secure from the moment you slip into this stylish underwire bikini top. It also closes securely at the back, is doubled for sheer protection, and has built-in pockets with padding. It’s the ideal bikini set for lazing on the beach or poolside with a good book, just as much as it is for layering with your favorite summer dresses and sandals for a family lunch or dinner. As for the high waisted bathing suit bottoms, they offer medium coverage with their medium to high-rise style. Additionally, like all of our swimwear, they’re super soft and ultrachlorine resistant too.

And in case you're wondering, the answer is yes! This beautiful bikini top and its matching swimsuit bottoms come in four fantastic shades, Burgundy, Avorio, Mosaico, and Etnico. So, simply select the one that coordinates best with your vacation wardrobe and with any swimsuit cover ups you have with you.

THE CHIKYU BELTED ONE PIECE

Available in the same shades as our beloved Kumanomi two piece swimsuit, the Chikyu belted one piece swimsuit is undeniably perfect for a family vacation. Firstly, the wide shoulder straps not only look amazing, they’ll also keep you feeling secure and comfortable whatever the day brings. From swimming to sightseeing and everything in between, these straps are designed to stay in place no matter what. This elegant swimsuit also offers medium coverage, built-in padding, and shape retention.

In addition to all the comfort this must-have sustainable swimsuit provides, you’ll feel amazing from the moment you have it on. Soft, shapely, and cut to flatter your waist with a simple tie-up belt, you’ll be reaching for it on repeat all vacation long. With that in mind, when you’re not at the beach or in the pool, we highly recommend styling this stylish one piece bathing suit with a slip-style skirt or palazzo pants. It’s the ultimate beach-to-bar, restaurant, or sightseeing piece and, thanks to the pilling-resistant fabric, you needn’t worry about it getting ruined on a day out.

 

THE HEDY CLASSIC TRIANGLE BIKINI TOP AND MID-RISE BOTTOMS

Dubbed a ‘classic’ for a reason, the Hedy classic triangle bikini top and mid-rise women’s swim bottoms make for a truly timeless pairing. As stylish now as they were in the 50s and likely will be for decades to come, triangle swimwear is ideal for your next family getaway. Our Hedy set has adjustable straps for the perfect fit and, like all our swimwear is doubled for sheer protection. It’s resistant to suncream and oil, has UV protection, and provides extra comfort and excellent coverage - just what you need for a family-filled week of fun (and unbeatable style).

So, shop this swimsuit in any one of our six incredible colorways. You’ll look and feel eternally stylish in a classic matching Nero, Mosaico, or Burgundy set. However, don’t be afraid to mix and match. Try the Nero swimsuit bottoms with the coral print swim top for a modern take on this classic two piece swimsuit. Or, try the coral print bottoms with the powder baby pink swimsuit top for a super summery look, the options are endless! Whichever color combination you choose, we guarantee you’ll want to slip into this must-have suit for many vacations to come.
