The Ultimate Guide to Eco-Friendly Swimwear for Kids: What to Look For & Why It Matters

Posted by Julia Wheeler on

As a parent, you want the best for your little ones—including what they wear to the beach or pool. Seaesta Surf eco-friendly swimwear offers a sustainable alternative that’s stylish, safe, and better for the planet. Here’s what you need to know when shopping for sustainable kids' swimwear.

Key Sustainable Materials to Look For

When shopping for eco-friendly swimwear, look for these materials:

  • Recycled Polyester (rPET): Made from recycled plastic bottles, rPET reduces waste and minimizes the demand for new petroleum-based fibers.

  • Organic Cotton Blends: Seaesta Surf Scallop Boardshorts incorporate organic cotton for added softness and breathability.

How Our Brand Prioritizes Sustainability

At Seaesta Surf, we believe in protecting the planet while keeping kids stylish and comfortable. Our swimwear is made from high-quality recycled and organic materials and features unique prints designed by independent artists. We are committed to ethical production and creating long-lasting, durable swimwear to reduce waste.

Care Tips to Make Swimwear Last Longer

Extending the life of your child’s swimwear is another great way to stay eco-friendly. Here are some tips:

  • Rinse swimwear with cold water after each use to remove chlorine and salt.

  • Avoid wringing out fabric, which can break down fibers faster.

  • Lay flat to dry in the shade to prevent fading and fabric degradation.

  • Wash in a guppyfriend bag to catch microplastics before they enter the water system.

By choosing eco-friendly swimwear, you’re making a difference for the environment while keeping your kids looking adorable in high-quality, sustainable designs.
