Everyone has different priorities when it comes to swimwear. For some, comfort is king. Others value sun protection and how well it holds up for watersports. And many of us just want a suit that looks cute enough to sunbathe in or one that doesn’t fade after a dip in the lake. Whatever your preference, we have created a list of bathing suits that will make you feel your best at the cottage this summer.

If you’re fair-skinned, you probably already know that swimming in a T-shirt is often the best defence against sunburns. This UVP shirt is the upgraded version of that, since the lightweight material is comfortable when wet, and it has quick-drying fabric, ultra-light when wet material, and even flat seams to avoid chaffing.
