This Season’s Best Baby Swimwear (And Picks For Mum, Too!)

Whether you’ve got a fully-fledged water baby on your hands or are dipping their toes in for the first time, having the right baby swimwear makes for a comfortable (and cute!) experience. A printed one-piece or swimsuit is the perfect all-in-one swim solution for your little one. These swim styles offer coverage for delicate skin and are often fitted with comfortable covered zips for quick dressing and nappy changes.

Want even more sun protection? Our lineup of rash vests for boys and girls features fun prints and playful solid colours to suit every budding swim wardrobe – look to kids’ swimwear brands like WITH LOVE 4 KIDS, Country Road and Cotton On Baby for rashies they’ll actually *want* to wear.  

It’s the little extras that you’ll be glad you packed in their swim bag after a few hours in the sun. Start good habits early with our collection of baby sun hats – bucket hats with wide brims or legionnaires caps offer extra shade for their face, ears and neck, and with neat little ties to keep the hat in place. Prepare for whatever the day has in store with swim towels, extra swim nappies, and pool toys like kickboards, floaties and inflatables. 

Now that they’re ready for a day at the beach, it’s your turn. You’ll want swimwear that’s comfortable, reliable and stylish – it may sound like a tall order, but our collection of women’s swimwear brands prove otherwise. 

Mums-to-be can still rock their favourite swim styles thanks to maternity swimwear from Fiola Rose Swim, Soon Maternity and more. You’ll find classic black one-pieces, mix-and-match bikinis and tankini tops if you want a little extra coverage for your growing bump.

Make breastfeeding that little bit smoother with nursing-friendly swimwear from brands like Ripe Maternity and Cake Maternity. Look for nursing bikini tops with adjustable straps and quick-release clips for easy feeding access wherever you and bub are. 

Curate a swim look that can take you from beach to cafe lunch with a roster of versatile overswim. While beloved for their bikinis, Zulu & Zephyr also offer a range of effortless throw-on-and-go silhouettes that work for pool, beach and beyond. Coordinate their breezy knitted separates for a chic twin-set look, or slip into one of the brand’s knitted dresses and complete with your favourite slides or sandals.
