Teen UV-protective swimwear: comfort and style for girls and boys
Teen UV-protective swimwear accompanies holidays and the development of girls' and boys' personal style. At Canopea, our teen swimwear combines high UPF 50+ fabric protection, comfortable cuts and timeless lines. One-piece swimsuits, bikinis, shorts and protective tops let everyone find the coverage and style that suit them for beach days and water activities.
Styles to suit teen girls' and boys' preferences
For girls, our teen range includes girls' UV-protective bikinis and girls' one-piece swimsuits inspired by our women's designs and adapted to younger proportions. Their simple, elegant, non-wired cuts include gentle underbust support for comfort throughout the day. You can also explore girls' bikini bottoms sold separately.
For boys, we offer streamlined styles such as boys' UV-protective swim trunks, or looser options with boys' UV-protective swim shorts. Discover the complete selections in our girls' swimwear and boys' swimwear collections.
UPF 50+ protection and ECONYL® fabric
All our swimwear provides a physical barrier that blocks more than 98% of UVA and UVB rays on covered areas. Made with ECONYL®, a 100% regenerated fibre produced from recycled fishing nets, it combines softness with high resistance to chlorine and salt.
For more upper-body coverage, pair swimwear with our girls' UV-protective swim tops, boys' UV-protective swim tops or children's UV-protective swim tops. Remember sunscreen on exposed areas.
Finding the right size during growth
Body proportions can change quickly during the teenage years. To find a secure fit without squeezing, consult our size guide using your child's current height and measurements.
After swimming, rinse the swimsuit in fresh water, machine wash at no more than 30°C and lay it flat to dry in the shade to preserve its technical fabric.
Frequently asked questions about teen UV-protective swimwear
How should I choose a teen swimsuit size during a growth spurt?
Take current measurements of the chest, waist, hips and height, then consult the style's size guide. Choose a close but flexible fit that does not leave marks on the skin.
Can a UV-protective swim top be paired with any teen swim bottoms?
Yes. This is one of the advantages of Canopea's versatile swimwear collection. A short- or long-sleeved UPF 50+ top pairs easily with swim shorts, fitted trunks, a bikini or bikini bottoms.
Does teen UV-protective swimwear dry quickly?
Yes. Thanks to ECONYL® fibre, the fabric does not become waterlogged and air-dries quickly, helping avoid a cold feeling after leaving the water.
