Products such as chlorine and salt are used in baths to maintain water quality that exceeds all standards of excellence. However, while these products help preserve water quality, they can affect the durability of swimwear, without causing major damage. Although every swimsuit is designed differently, here are a few simple tips to extend its life:

1. We recommend that you wear a swimsuit designed to resist chlorine, salt, sweat, sunscreen and UV rays. Your swimsuit will be exposed to most or all of these elements during your visit.

2. A wet swimsuit will tend to absorb less chlorine and salt. For this reason, shower with your bathing suit before using the facilities.

3. When you get home, rinse your swimsuit to wash away sweat, salt and chlorine that could damage the fabric.
