Yes, and we'll be specific about it.

All bikinis, cropped rash guards, breezy swim shorts, and scuba leggings made with our US and EU production partners are constructed from at least 75% recycled polyester (rPET), sourced from diverted ocean-bound and post-consumer plastic waste.

Women's full length rash guards, one piece swimsuits, and yoga swim leggings made with our US production partner are also made from recycled polyester — though please note this does not currently apply to the same styles produced through our EU partner.

We're transparent about this because it matters, and we're committed to closing that gap as our production partnerships develop.

Compared to virgin polyester, recycled polyester reduces CO₂ emissions by up to 79% and uses significantly less water in production.

Every piece is also made to order, meaning zero overproduction, zero unsold stock, no unused garments going to the landfill.

Every print is produced using OEKO-TEX certified sustainable inks, so what goes into the water with you is as clean as the ocean you're diving..

Yes, every piece in The Dive Compass collection is rated UPF 50+, blocking 98% of harmful UV rays.

Whether you're spending a full day on a liveaboard between dives, snorkeling a shallow reef, or freediving in tropical sun, you're fully protected without a single drop of chemical sunscreen entering the water. UPF 50+ protection means no reapplying between dives, no reef-damaging chemicals washing off your skin, and no compromising on coverage — just clean, effective sun protection built directly into the fabric. It's one of the most practical and reef-friendly swaps a diver can make.

As a certified dive master who has spent countless hours on tropical dive boats, our founder designed our swimwear to solve exactly this problem, gear that protects you from the sun as seriously as it protects the reef from you.

Every single order plants corasl, no minimum spend, no conditions, no exceptions.

Through our Save Our Seas Pledge, every purchase directly funds coral restoration at Padang Bai, Bali, in partnership with our conservation partner Living Seas Foundation.

To date, Living Seas has planted over 450,000 corals across more than 8,000 m² of restored reef — and the work is far from over. Their goal is to restore over 5 hectares of coral reef, bringing back the fish populations and biodiversity that only come with a truly healthy, living reef.

What makes this restoration program particularly extraordinary is where many of those corals come from. A nearby government construction project in Candidasa is building a boardwalk that would otherwise destroy existing coral reef. Livingseas is actively rescuing those corals from the construction site, harvesting fragments that would be lost forever and transplanting them onto reef stars and coral nursery structures in Padang Bai, giving them a second chance at life.

As the Candidasa construction project winds down, Livingseas will transition to propagating corals from their own established nurseries, fragmenting healthy coral colonies to continue expanding the reef restoration program.

This isn't a donation to a distant cause. It's coral rescued from destruction, planted by hand, monitored, and grown — in Bali, on a real reef, funded directly by your purchase.

Most of our collection is designed specifically with scuba divers in mind, and yes, it's built to perform underwater.

Our Scuba Bikinis, rash guards, Scuba Leggings, one piece swimsuits, and swim trunks all feature a stay-put fit that doesn't ride up or bunch under your wetsuit during a dive, with stretchy recycled fabric that moves with your body underwater rather than restricting it.

Our full length rash guards work as a complete dive skin in warm tropical water and layer seamlessly under a wetsuit in cooler conditions.

A few styles in our collection, including our breezy swim shorts and yoga swim leggings, are designed more for the beach, the boat deck, and oceanside living than for scuba use specifically.
