Bikinis

I've not been on holiday for years, and am going this year with my young children.

I am looking for a bikini which is a sporty bra top and sensible pants combo.

Can anyone recommend before I loose hours of my life trawling the internet.

Thanks 🙏

i'm looking for the same, I have gone everywhere and struggled to find one! It seems to be string bikinis are the rage. I do want a really revealing thong bikini on the bottom too so a modest sporty top and revealing bottom are a hard pair to find. Watching incase someone else can help

bravissimo? I have big norks though so need the support. Last year I bought my bikini there and whilst the top was officially sporty seemed sporty to me. They are not cheap though but they have lasted.

Sweaty Betty?

Would a very practical 'sports performance' bikini work?

Not the most stylish, but will definitely stay put whilst you're busy supervising young children.

I have looked at the sporty ranges a little so I'll report back if I find something awesome 🙏

Decathlon are generally good for sporty styles.

There's a couple here on mountain warehouse

another one

Lots on Decathlon such as this one

Superdry & Adidas both do a 'sports bra' style bikini top (and other sports brands probably do too)

I tried a couple of 'sporty' ones on in Bravissimo recently (one Speedo and the other Bravissimo own brand), was disappointed in the support of both. Tried a regular one on which felt much more supportive (Bravissimo Riviera) so looking forward to wearing it soon. I mentioned it on another thread and someone else also gave it a thumbs up. It might not be the right one for you but just wanted to point out you might get surprised by a non sporty one. I find the brands better than M&S own etc.
