Frequently asked questions: Swimwear Accessories
Which swim accessories does Swim Essentials have?
Among the Swim Essentials swim accessories you will find sun hats, including reversible hats, sun caps with a neck flap, caps, beach ponchos and scrunchies. They are designed in the same prints as the swimwear, so it is easy to complete your child’s summer outfit.
Which accessories do you bring for a beach day with your child?
A sun hat or sun cap for the head and neck, a beach poncho to dry off and stay warm, and water shoes against hot sand and sharp shells. If your daughter has long hair, a scrunchie keeps it out of her face while playing. Also remember UV swimwear and suncream for uncovered skin.
Which accessories are there for babies?
For babies there are sun hats and sun caps from size 0/1 year. The sun hats often have ties, so they stay on while your little one is lying down or in a baby carrier, and the caps have a neck flap. A beach poncho is handy for the very youngest too: according to the product information, the Coral Bliss poncho is suitable from 0 to 10 years.
Do the swim accessories have UV protection?
The sun hats and sun caps do: they are made from fabric with UV protection, and some of the caps list UPF 50+. Beach ponchos and scrunchies are not meant as sun protection. A poncho is for drying your child off and keeping them warm, a scrunchie for keeping hair out of the face.
Do the accessories match the swimwear?
Yes. Most sun hats, caps and beach ponchos come in the same prints as our swimwear. The Green Leopard sun hat, for example, matches the swim shorts, boxers, swimsuits and water shoes in Green Leopard, and the Blue Leopard poncho matches the UV suits, bikinis and caps in the same print.
