Rashguards are perfect to wear when you are surfing or to protect your skin between the dives. Especially on a dive boat where the sun can be very intense. Wear it under your wetsuit to keep a little bit warmer and to make the donning and doffing easier. The sun, sand, wind, or other elements won’t be a problem when doing sports, thanks to this smooth and versatile long-sleeve rash guard. Its slim fit, flat ergonomic seams, and long body yields bold prints and protects from the sun and bruising.
• UPF 50+

We have stocked up on rashguards
Originally rash guards, or swim shirts, were designed for surfers, to stop them getting scraped and a “rash” on their chest from the grainy surf board—hence the name. But they’re for more than just surfers, in fact, they are becoming increasingly popular with anyone who enjoys the water.
🤿 For scuba divers – For warm weather diving it can add a layer of protection against coral and stings, plus against the rub of a BCD. For colder diving, the best rash guard for this can be worn underneath a wetsuit and makes it easier to slip on, while also providing an extra layer of warmth.
🏄🏻 For surfers – SPF swim shirts can protect you from the sun, while still being stylish, comfortable, and easy to move in.
🚣🏾♂️ For kayaking or canoeing – A long sleeve rash guard shirt worn underneath a lifejacket will stop it rubbing against your skin without you getting cold, as you would wearing a normal t-shirt.
🏊🏻 For swimmers and snorkelers – A rash guard swim shirt will give your body better sun protection as you float on the surface. This is especially needed as a lot of reefs are now protected and don’t allow sunscreen—even those deemed as “reef safe”.
