“Amazing Bikini! So good for diving. No slips and super comfortable 🧡”
We haven’t been very good at celebrating our wins on Instagram, so I thought I’d post some of the amazing 5 star reviews we’ve recieved. Reviews like this keep me motivated to keep going and building this brand!
Thank you for your support and following along on my journey to build a brand that gives back to the ocean while giving you sustainable swimwear inspired by the sea, it means more than you’d know 🧜🏻♀️🪸🩵
This is why I drag myself onto a 5am dive boat. Why I trek through three airports just to get back underwater. This is why I care so much about protecting coral reefs.
As David Attenborough said “if we save the sea we save our world”
✨Save this for the days when you need a reminder of why it all matters.
Are you letting the ocean slip away between dive trips?
I know that feeling, the dive high fades and you're back at your desk… The reef feels very far away.
Here are 5 ways I keep that connection alive, wherever I am:
🌊 Make the ocean part of your everyday environment, surround yourself with it. Blue tones, ocean prints, and watch marine documentaries. Keep it present so it stays personal.
♻️ Refuse single-use plastic. Everywhere, every time. The average person uses 156 plastic bottles a year. Every one you refuse is one less chance it ends up in the reef you love.
🤓 Stay informed, even when the news is hard. Read about what's happening beneath the surface. Follow marine scientists. Share what you learn. Awareness is the first step to action.
👙 Wear what you stand for. Your purchasing choices tell brands what matters. Choosing recycled, made-to-order dive wear over fast fashion is a vote for the ocean
📣 Use your platform, however small. You don't need a million followers to make a difference. One conversation, one shared post, one person who didn't know and now does, that compounds
The ocean doesn't need you to live on the coast. It needs you to live consciously wherever you are.
That's what The Dive Compass is built around. Gear that carries the ocean with you, made from 75% recycled polyester, designed by a diver, paired with a coral planted with every single order.
Tell me, what's one ocean conscious swap you've made this year? I genuinely love reading these. 👇
Warning: most divers overpack and underprotect on tropical dive trips. 🤿✈️
After liveaboards in the Maldives, Thailand, and the Red Sea, here's what actually makes it into my bag:
1️⃣ Long-sleeve UPF 50+ rash guard, replaces sunscreen, stinger suit, and wetsuit in warm water for freediving or snorkeling . One piece that does everything. I definitely still bring my 5mm for dives!
2️⃣ Mineral SPF only, zinc oxide for your face between dives. Chemical sunscreen in the water harms coral and has been shown to be carcinogenic. Non-negotiable.
3️⃣ Your own mask and computer, rental masks fog and leak and your computer lets you control your dive.
4️⃣ DJI Osmo or dive camera, because you'll want proof this actually happened.
5️⃣ Reusable water bottle, so much better than going through a million plastic bottles
6️⃣ Mesh bag for wet gear between dives.
7️⃣ my 5 mm wetsuit because I’m always freezing 🥶🤣
📌 Save this for your next trip.
💬 Comment 'PACK' and I'll DM you my full tropical dive packing checklist.

This is the energy we're here for. 🙌🌊
Arms wide open, turquoise water ahead, and a rash guard pattern that does all the talking. We designed our prints to feel as alive as the ocean itself, and seeing them worn like this, with that much joy, is everything.
"Love the pattern and feel to this rashy!" — simple, honest, and it says it all. 💙
When your gear makes you want to throw your arms open and dive in headfirst… that's how you know it's right. 🤿

"Great to cover from the sun on long dive days" — yes, exactly this. 🌊
There is something so special about seeing the cropped rashie and matching bikini worn together the way they were designed to be. Cute enough for the sun lounger, protective enough for a full day on the dive boat. That's the whole idea, gear that works as hard as you do, without ever making you choose between looking good and staying protected. ☀️
UPF 50+ sun protection has never looked this good. 🥹

Two Dive Compass rash guards on one dive boat — we love to see it. 💙
"It helps me put my wetsuit on for diving. Plus it's super comfortable." This is one of our favourite things about our rash guards that doesn't get talked about enough, that silky smooth layer that makes sliding into a wetsuit on a rocking boat so much easier. No more awkward tugging and hopping on one foot. 😅
Comfortable, functional, and looking amazing in the water, exactly what we design for. Happy divers are everything to us. 🪸

Laura, you look absolutely incredible. 🌊
We get so many questions about fit and support, so we love when a review covers it all so honestly. True to size, flattering cut, supportive even with an ample bust, and ties in different ways so you can make it your own. That's exactly what we designed this bikini to do.
And she grabbed the matching cropped rashie too for a mix and match set, because once you find a print you love, why stop at one piece? 🥹
This is what inclusive, thoughtful design looks like. Swimwear that works for real bodies, on real beach days, with real joy. 💙
