UPF 50+ Divewear Built to Stay Put Underwater

From full-length rash guards and scuba leggings to diving bikinis and cropped rashies, our women's divewear collection is built around one question: will it hold up on the reef?

UPF 50+ protection. Stay-put fit. Recycled fabric that moves with your body at depth.

DESIGNED FOR SCUBA DIVING

DIVEWEAR THAT PERFORMS WHERE IT COUNTS.

Most women's swimwear wasn't designed with a BCD or wetsuit in mind. Tops that ride up when you pull on your wetsuit. Bikini ties that come undone gearing up on a rocking boat. Fabric that bunches under your weight belt and distracts you mid-dive.

The Dive Compass women's divewear collection was built to fix every one of those problems. Every piece is engineered around the specific demands of scuba diving and snorkeling:

Stay-put fit under your BCD and wetsuit. Our rash guards, scuba leggings, and dive bikinis are cut and constructed to stay exactly where you put them, from the surface to depth and back again. No riding up. No bunching. No adjusting mid-dive.

UPF 50+ sun protection. Every piece in our divewear collection blocks 98% of UV rays, critical for long surface intervals, liveaboard days, and the hours between dives when sun exposure adds up fast. Wear your rash guard as a dive skin in warm tropical water and skip chemical sunscreen in the water entirely.

Four-way stretch recycled fabric. Our divewear is made from recycled polyester with four-way stretch, fabric that moves with your body at depth, not against it. No restriction, no resistance, no gear fighting you when you should be focused on the reef.

Flat ergonomic seams. Seam placement matters when you're wearing a wetsuit for three dives a day. Our rash guards and leggings are constructed with flat seams designed to sit comfortably under dive gear without chafing or pressure points.

WHAT TO WEAR SCUBA DIVING

THE COMPLETE WOMEN'S DIVEWEAR GUIDE.

Not sure what to wear scuba diving? Here's how each piece in our women's divewear collection works in the water:

Full-Length Rash Guard — Your most versatile dive layer. Wear it as a standalone dive skin in warm tropical water above 28°C, or layer it under your wetsuit in cooler conditions. UPF 50+ protection, stay-put fit, and flat seams that sit comfortably under your BCD or wetsuit for full dive days. Our long-sleeve rash guard is the piece divers reach for first, and the one that stays in the bag longest.

Cropped Rashie — All the same benefits as the full length rash guards, but a cropped length. The warm-water essential. Pair with your scuba leggings or diving bikini bottoms for a full dive skin in tropical conditions, or layer under your wetsuit for added warmth and protection. Shorter length means it works as a base layer without adding bulk.

Scuba Leggings — Full-length coverage from hip to ankle. Built from four-way stretch recycled fabric with pockets and a crossover waistband that stays put under a wetsuit or weight belt. Worn as a standalone dive skin in warm water or as a thermal base layer underneath a wetsuit, scuba leggings are one of the most practical pieces any tropical diver can own.

Scuba Bikini — Our signature piece. Designed specifically for diving, supportive construction, stay-put fit, and secure ties that don't come undone gearing up or getting in and out of a wetsuit. Available as a full set or as separates so you can mix tops and bottoms across our full print library.

WEAR IT AS A DIVE SKIN. LAYER IT UNDER YOUR WETSUIT.

ONE COLLECTION. TWO WAYS TO DIVE.

The best thing about quality divewear is its versatility. Every piece in The Dive Compass women's divewear collection works two ways:

As a standalone dive skin in warm tropical water — the Maldives, Indonesia, the Great Barrier Reef, & the Caribbean. When water temperatures are above 28°C, a rash guard or scuba leggings worn as a dive skin gives you full UPF 50+ sun protection, sting protection from near-invisible jellyfish, and coral scrape protection, without the bulk and heat of a wetsuit on the surface.

As a base layer under your wetsuit in cooler conditions. A rash guard worn under your wetsuit creates a smooth, low-friction layer that makes getting your wetsuit on significantly easier, especially on a rocking boat. It also helps a slightly loose rental wetsuit fit more snugly, improving thermal insulation. If you've ever struggled into a wetsuit on a dive boat, a rash guard underneath changes everything.

Both uses. One collection. Built for every dive.

Coral reefs need our help

Your purchase plants corals

Over 50% of the world's coral reefs have been lost since the 1950s. The divers who choose The Dive Compass know this, and they choose gear that does something about it.

Every women's divewear purchase plants corals in the heart of the Coral Triangle in Bali, Indonesia with Livingseas Foundation. We've dived these reefs. We've seen what a healthy reef looks like — and what it looks like when it's dying. That's why every piece of gear we make gives something back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I wear The Dive Compass divewear for scuba diving?

Yes, every piece in our women's divewear collection is specifically designed for scuba diving and snorkeling. Our rash guards, scuba leggings, and diving bikinis are built with a stay-put fit that doesn't bunch under your BCD or wetsuit, flat seams for comfort under dive gear, and four-way stretch recycled fabric that moves freely at depth. This is divewear built for the ocean, not the pool.

Should I wear a rash guard or wetsuit for diving?

It depends on water temperature. In warm tropical water above 28°C — the Maldives, Indonesia, the Great Barrier Reef, the Caribbean — a long-sleeve UPF 50+ rash guard worn as a dive skin is often all you need. It provides full sun protection, sting protection, and coral scrape protection without the heat and bulk of a wetsuit on the surface. In cooler water below 28°C, wear your rash guard as a base layer underneath your wetsuit for easier entry and added warmth. Read our full guide: Rash Guard vs Wetsuit.

Does the divewear offer UV protection?

Yes. Every piece in our women's divewear collection offers UPF 50+ protection, blocking 98% of UV rays. Worn as a dive skin, our rash guards and scuba leggings eliminate the need for chemical sunscreen in the water, protecting both your skin and the reef.

What sizes does the women's divewear collection come in?

Our women's divewear collection runs from XXS to 6XL depending on the style. Check individual product pages for exact sizing and refer to the size chart on each product page.

Yes, our women's divewear is made from 75% recycled polyester, certified to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and OEKO-TEX Standard 100.

Fits under my wetsuit

Beautiful wish was a little longer to cover my stomach

Wonderful

I got this suit after many disappointing suits. This one fits well, feels secure, and doesn’t have cups or squeezing fabric or any of that stuff you don’t want when you’re diving. Can’t wait to get it in the ocean. For fit, I am 5’2” and 180 lbs.

This bikini fits my girlfriend so well it's poetry:
Waves lap, splash her curves
Ocean Serene bikini
Happy Wet Woman!

I would strongly recommend this bikini as a gift to anyone hoping to convince their girlfriend to move to the Caribbean to live, work, and play by the sea. Not just because of the robust construction of the swimsuit, but because of the excellent customer service experience you're in for with Andrea/The Dive Compass.

I'm obsessed with this new print

I love the colors, pattern, and the fit of this bikini! 10/10

Such a cute design! The fit is perfectly!

Perfect bottoms for diving!

I’m obsessed with my whale shark bikini! 🐋💙 The fabric is so soft, the fit is amazing, and it gives the perfect amount of support. I felt incredibly cute and confident wearing it — it covers exactly where it needs to while still feeling sexy and cute. Perfect for diving or just a beach day ! It’s easily my new favorite bikini! 🌊✨ Lo amo!!!

I love this swimsuit! It’s great quality

Very nice design and material. For diving in warm waters or under the wetsuit - but it's too cute to hide it ;-) The size runs quite big, you could choose the smaller one.

I love the bikini top. It's so comfortable, top quality and the design is very cute. I wear it with a normal black bottom and it looks very nice together.

Love the quality and design! So unique and fits great.

Beautiful! The quality and unique design are just what I needed. I love diving and wanted a rash guard that was not the typical mass produced look. I bought this design and love it so much, I will be on the lookout for new styles from this company. Awesome quality and comfortable too! Love it!

My favorite purchase as the fit is good and the print is pretty!

Comfortable, loose fit and awesome prints.

Pretty print! I think these will fit well under a wet suit. Take your time to really measure yourselves before ordering!

Very pretty and good quality top! Don't have a photo yet as I've not gone diving with it, but soon!

This is my third diving bikini I've purchased from the dive compass and I can't get enough!

I absolutely love these Bikinis! I'm stocking up for my liveabord in Egypt!

I am obsessed!!! This suit is sooo soft and so cute!!

This is a perfect rash guard!! Exactly what I was hoping for. It fit perfectly, is so well made and great quality material, protected me from the sun and sea critters, and looks so great!! Perfect for snorkeling or diving or any other water activity. Got tons of compliments and everyone kept asking me where I got it!! Was thrilled to tell them about this company, which donates 10% to ocean conservation! Will definitely be buying more!

The dive compass is a classy operation. I received a size M that was too small. Andrea was prompt in sending me return directions and getting a size L sent to me quickly (my dive trip was approaching). The fit was great and the customer service exceptional!

Hi Susan, thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear you had a great experience and that the size exchange worked out smoothly. I hope you enjoyed your dive trip!

Perfect love the shipping updates

Hi Christy! We're so glad you loved the shipping updates. Thanks for your wonderful review!

I really couldn't recommend shopping at The Dive Compass highly enough. Not only are the products beautifully designed and of amazing quality, but the customer service is incredible every step of the way. I wanted some advice about the sizing before ordering, and got helpful and quick responses that made sure that every piece fit wonderfully (even the bikini, and that can really be a challenge to order online). After I got my order, I had an issue with the rash guard, and I was promptly sent a replacement. I couldn't be happier about my purchases and the entire process, and I'll definitely come back to The Dive Compass the next time I need any swimwear or sporty beachwear!

Thank you for your wonderful review! I'm thrilled to hear you had a great experience and love your swimwear. Happy diving 🩵

This colorful gear is highly visible and great for open water swimming. Super cute!

Hi May, thank you for your wonderful feedback! I'm glad you love the gear and find it perfect for open water swimming. Stay safe and enjoy your swims!

These are awesome items for diving or just dressing in tropical climates. I actually bought a dress from The Dive Compass that I love to wear in the Florida sun. The fabric is great and the underwater themes are so fun they make you feel happy!

This is my second purchase with The Dive Compass. I love the quality and design of the bikinis and rashies. I get tons of compliments ever time I wear them.

Hi Paula, I'm thrilled to hear you love your bikinis and rashies! Thanks so much for your continued support and kind words. We look forward to your next visit!

Everyone keeps asking where I got my rash guards and bikinis - and they're amazing quality and a good thickness for diving!

I'm thrilled to hear you love the rash guards and bikinis. Thanks for sharing your experience and for spreading the word about The Dive Compass!

The items are good quality and extremely pretty! The best things about this business is how it gives back to ocean conservation efforts - that's why I purchased from them. The customer service is top notch!

Excellent customer service and a user-friendly, intuitive website make for a seamless experience

Customer service was great!

This shop really needs more attention! This design is also just amazing! If you love the sea and leggings, these are a must-have! I study marine biology and these leggings are going to be one of my new favorites! There is a size chart to help you find the right size, but mine was so weird that I wasn't sure. So I wrote to the sales assistant directly and she recommended size S as the perfect fit (I'm 5'6', hips 95 cm and waist 71 cm). The leggings are washable at 30 degrees Celsius—that's all I need! I am completely satisfied and will probably order the other designs in time—I already have two! Sunny greetings from the Baltic Sea!

quick delivery , reasonable postage fees. I was expecting an order confirmation email, but didn't get one. I did get a shipment information though, a few days after I ordered, which included the order details.

Hi Verena, so glad you liked your order and it arrived quickly! That's soo helpful to know that the email order confirmation never arrived, we will get this fixed!

Seems good quality and a good fit

Hi Don, thank you so much for your nice review and your support of Livingseas! Your donation shirt plants 18 coral fragments and donates one reef star structure to Livingseas Foundation to help reach the 500K corals planted goal! Your support means the world to us!

Great leggings all around! The fabric is soft, the design is beautiful, and the function is excellent. With the rash guard I felt glamorous and sun-safe. Easy to doff during intervals and put back on. The scalloped waistband is a great touch. Will definitely shop with The Dive compass in the future!

Hi Susan, thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm so happy to hear you love the leggings and felt fabulous in them. You look happy and beautiful on the dive boat! Thanks for sharing the photo 🩵

What a cute and functional way to dive in Bonaire! The top fit beautifully and feels very substantial. The sea foam green matches beautifully with the Octopus print and is very visible while submerged. I felt both sun-safe and thematically glamorous!

Hi Susan, I'm so glad to hear you love the rash guard! It sounds perfect for your Bonaire dives. Thanks for sharing your experience and the beautiful photo 🩵

This is my second set of leggings. So happy they now have pockets!

Hi Amy, we're thrilled to hear you love the leggings with pockets! Thanks for being a repeat customer and sharing your excitement. Happy diving!

So beautifully made. Bright colors. Lovely

Hi Christy! Thank you so much for your lovely words. We're thrilled you love the Ocean Headband. Enjoy your bright and beautiful accessory!
