Swimsuits for a honeymoon
Updated: 05.11.2026
In short: For a honeymoon, pack two or three swimsuits with different moods: a white or ivory bikini with gold details for a bridal feel, a statement one-piece for dinners by the pool, and one easy everyday suit for swimming and activities. Choose lined, textured fabric so white stays opaque, and bring a matching cover-up.

Bridal white done right
White swimwear looks beautiful on a honeymoon. A few tips help it look its best:
- Choose lined or double-layer fabric so it stays opaque when wet.
- Textured fabric like ribbed, crinkle or jacquard looks luxe and hides wrinkles.
- Gold or pearl details, such as rings, beads or chains, add a bridal touch.
- Ivory, cream or champagne are softer options if bright white feels too stark.
Statement styles
- Plunge one-piece: elegant and a little daring.
- Cutout one-piece: modern shape for photos.
- One-shoulder suit: a fresh, fashion-forward neckline.
- High-leg cut: makes legs look long in every photo.

Don't forget practical
You'll probably swim, snorkel or kayak too. Pack one suit that stays put: a secure one-piece or a sporty bikini with firm straps. Delicate hardware and string ties are lovely, but not always made for big waves.
Care on the trip
- Rinse each suit in fresh water after the sea or pool.
- Dry in the shade so white doesn't yellow and colors stay bright.
- Keep metal details away from sunscreen when you can. Some lotions can mark them.
- Rotate suits so each one dries fully.
