Surf bikinis to surfsuits – a complete women’s surfwear guide

Surfing might be a new hobby for some women, but it's a lifelong passion for others. With the increase in popularity of female surfers, there is now a greater variety of surfwear available. 

Not knowing which style of women's surfwear is the best option for you can feel overwhelming. Surf bikinis, surfsuits, surf shorts, and rash shirts are all available. Weighing up the differences include the varying levels of sun protection, skin coverage, flexibility, wearability and your surfing ability. 

At The Someday Co, we have a wide range of sustainable Australian brands that design functional and stylish women's surfwear. These products feature high-quality fabrics made from recycled materials. 

Our favourite brands of Women’s Surfwear include:

  • Ocean Flo
  • Soulti Surf
  • Salt Gypsy
  • Atmosea

What are the Best Women's Surfwear? 

Surfsuits

Surfsuits for women are a popular option. There are a variety of different designs available, but they are all one-piece suits. Surfsuits are much more robust than a typical one-piece swimsuit. Features include an open back design, long sleeves, zips in the front, and high necklines. 

The open-back design allows for easy entry and paddling. With a wide range of style combinations, you can find a surf suit that matches your style and surfing ability. 

We recommend:

Surf Bikinis

The design of a surf bikini is more robust than that of a regular bikini. Surf bikinis provide less coverage than that of a wetsuit or rashguard. They feature bust support and thick fixed straps to keep the surf bikini top in place. Minimal movement is part of the design features. 

The brands Salt Gypsy and Soulti Surf have created surf bikinis in various colours and patterns. You will find a colour to suit your style.

Surf Bikini Tops - We Recommend:

The surf bikini bottoms are designed to stay put while tackling the waves. They feature a high waistline and a thick waistband for a firm fit, accentuating your best features and staying put through the toughest conditions. 

Surf Bikini Bottoms - We Recommend:

Surf Shorts

With a pair of surf shorts, you can keep your lower back warm and cushion your hip bones against the hardness of your surfboard. These shorts are designed for any surf conditions and will stay put through even the roughest of sets. For those colder days, choose an option made from wetsuit material to keep your tooshie toasty.

We recommend:

Rash Shirts

Rashies, rash vests, or whatever you call them, are the GOAT for full UV coverage. The long-sleeved design provides full coverage, which means you can surf for longer without being concerned about sun exposure. For additional warmth, look for a rash shirt made from wetsuit material.
