Rip Curl Bikinis

The best bikini is the one you stop thinking about the moment you are in the water. Rip Curl builds bikini sets with secure ties, comfortable fabric and shapes that hold their position through a swim or a wave, so you can dive under without a running mental checklist.

Rip Curl bikinis and bikini sets

A bikini worn on a beach and a bikini worn in surf have very different jobs, and these are cut with the second in mind.

Ties and cuts that hold their place

Adjustable ties and considered shaping let you set the fit precisely, which is what keeps a bikini secure through a duck dive rather than leaving you rearranging it in the shallows.

Comfortable, quick-drying fabric

Swim fabric that sheds water quickly means you are not sitting in something cold and heavy afterwards, and the smooth finish sits comfortably under a rash vest or wetsuit.

Mix and match the fit you need

Sets let you match the shape that works on top with the shape that works below, which matters more for swimming and surfing than it does for lying still on sand.

Made for the water, not just the sand

Secure straps, comfortable seams and fabric chosen for repeated soaking mean these hold up to daily use through a summer rather than fading and stretching after a fortnight.

Frequently asked questions

Will a bikini stay on while surfing?

A surf-oriented bikini with secure ties and a snug fit will handle a lot, but for heavy surf many people prefer a one piece or a rash vest over the top. Tie the straps firmly and check the fit before you paddle out.

How should a bikini fit?

Close without digging in. You should be able to slip a finger under a strap comfortably, and nothing should shift when you raise your arms or bend forward. Swim fabrics relax slightly once wet, so err on the snug side when dry.

Can I wear a bikini under a wetsuit?

Yes. A bikini is the most comfortable thing to wear under neoprene, provided it is smooth and free of chunky ties, knots or hardware at the back, since those press into you once the suit is on.

How do I make swimwear last?

Rinse in cool fresh water after every swim, especially after chlorine or salt, and dry it in the shade rather than in direct sun. Avoid wringing it out and never leave it screwed up damp in a bag, which is what breaks down the elastane.
