OUR STORY
UV8 Swim was created by Emma, inspired by a life lived near the water and a deep connection to the coast. From the beaches of the Hamptons, Charleston, and Hilton Head, to dreaming of faraway coastlines in Maui, Capri, and beyond — UV8 is a collection shaped by both lived moments and bucket list escapes.
Every piece is designed with intention: to capture the spirit of sun-soaked destinations while bringing together a community that shares a passion for the ocean.
Welcome to UV8 Swim. Inspired by the destination, made for the journey.
WHERE IT STARTS...
UV8 Swim pieces are created by our partner in Bali. Aligned with their sustainability goals, they recycle packaging materials and have implemented a zero-waste policy to minimize environmental impact. They also reduce fabric waste through efficient production planning and donate fabric offcuts to a local artist for use in a sustainable scrunchie business—an initiative that supports local creativity while reinforcing their commitment to sustainability and community collaboration.
DURABILITY
Designed for sun-soaked days and salty swims, these bikinis are made to last. Fade-resistant against sun and chlorine, they keep their colors bold and bright all summer long. With a fit that moves with you and tested shape retention, they’re your go-to for endless beach hangs and poolside lounging.
Made from fast-drying, lightweight, and breathable fabric, they’re perfect for all-day wear—even in the heat. Built for comfort and durability, these bikinis can handle frequent washes after every beach day, keeping their original shape and style no matter how often you dive in.
