What's the Best Bikini Brief for Swimming?

One classic piece of swimwear is the bikini brief. Comfortable and appealing, these adaptable pieces give the freedom of movement needed for a great day in the water. But not all bikini briefs are made equally, especially if you intend to swim rather than just lounge by the pool with a cool drink.

What should you look for in the perfect bikini brief for swimming? Let's explore style, comfort, and fit elements to discover why Laya Swim's briefs are ideal for everyone wishing to splash. Thanks to their careful design and attention to detail, these briefs provide everything we want in swimwear: a sleek silhouette, a secure fit that stays in place, and a soft but durable fabric that resists the rigors of both sun and surf.

Why Laya Bikini Briefs Work for Swimming

There are quite a few choices available right now, but the briefs women choose for swimming tend to follow a few golden rules. First, they must remain in place, and nobody wants a wardrobe breakdown midway through a lap. They should also be comfortable and easy to move around in. Last but not least, the fabric counts greatly.

So, what makes a bikini brief bottom great for a proper swim?

  • Snug but not too tight

  • Good rear coverage

  • High-quality, quick-drying material

  • Doesn't ride up or sag when wet

And that's where we step in. Laya Swim's low-rise briefs check every box.

Our Top Picks at Laya Swim

Laya Swim knows what it takes to create swim-ready briefs. Every piece is created with great care in Mauritius and is meant to make you feel naturally confident.

Let's talk about our favorites:

Oh Darling Brief – Titanium

Oh Darling Brief - Titanium has a mid-rise cut, a nice high-leg style, and cheeky but subdued coverage. It hugs you just right without probing in. Built for the sun and sea, this brief comprises SPF 50 Spanish fabric. We adore that it's handcrafted with enduring detail and wholly lined. This bikini brief bottom moves with you whether you're paddling out or just floating free. Plus, Titanium is such a chic neutral that it goes with everything.

High-Waisted = High Confidence

High-waisted briefs are your friend if you want a little more coverage and love a classic shape.

Asylum Brief – Red

This one lends polish and power. Made with structured panel details that give that snatched look we all love, the Asylum Brief in red is sleek and slimming. We also swear by a particular SPF 50 Spanish fabric. It's fully lined and seamless and designed to remain in place whether you're diving, swimming, or just dancing in the waves.

Key Features:

  • Fuller coverage

  • High waist support

  • Handmade with love in Mauritius

Asylum Brief – Lavender

The same dreamy layout in the softest lavender shade. If your taste in colors is more subdued, this Asylum Brief is ideal. Still, let the pastel hue not fool you. It is every bit as appealing and sturdy as the red.

Feeling Bold? Go Babaji

The Babaji Brief-Leopard is the move for those who enjoy ruching details for a versatile fit. This bikini brief is not designed only for swimming but also lounging. It provides reasonable coverage and is made from premium fabric that resists sunlight, chlorine, and salt water.

Swim, surf, or sunbathe; you'll turn heads doing all three.

Blue You Can't Ignore

Sometimes, all we need to brighten our beach days is a flash of vivid color. The Bonnie Brief–Blue brings precisely that. This traditional cut provides a pop of color and a good fit. 

Why We Love It:

  • Bright, happy blue tone

  • Classic bikini brief silhouette

  • Super comfy for active days

What to Look for in a Swim-Ready Brief?

Here's a basic list of what kind of bikini briefs women should wear when swimming:

  • Fit: Shouldn't ride up or dig in

  • Material: Quality fabric like ours, breathable, SPF 50, quick-drying

  • Coverage: Choose based on your comfort level

  • Style: Go classic, high-waisted, or bold. It's all about how you feel about it.

Laya Swim gives you the freedom of choice. We have the cheeky Oh Darling, the high-rise Asylum, and strong print work like Babaji. Our low-rise briefs are crafted for style, sun, and movement. The best thing is that we do not give fashion quality second priority. Every piece is created to last and is handcrafted in Mauritius. They also look just as good as they feel.

Why Do We Trust Laya Swim (and You Should Too)?

Everybody has had one bikini brief that felt wrong or stretched out after one swim. For this reason, at Laya Swim, we aim to produce swimwear that looks fantastic and lasts in real life. We cover beach swims, saltwater dips, pool dives, and everything else.

Here's what sets us apart:

  • Luxury quality at an attainable price point

  • SPF 50 premium Spanish fabrics

  • Fully lined and seamless where it matters

  • Designed with movement in mind

Established in 2019 by Witney Laya Tucker, Laya Swim offers island confidence straight from Mauritius into your swim drawer. Everything is designed consciously since we think swimwear should empower rather than only cover.

So… What's the Best Bikini Brief for Swimming?

That will depend on your vibe. Do you want something cheeky and fashionable? Go for the Oh Darling Brief. Want elegant coverage? The Asylum Brief in Red or Lavender will be much loved. Sensible and wild? The Babaji Brief brings print power. And for something timeless and brilliant? All you need is the Bonnie Brief.
