Kona Sol

At Kona Sol®, we believe that finding the perfect swimsuit should be fun, easy, and make you feel amazing. That’s why we create high-quality, stylish swimwear designed to fit and flatter every body type.

About Kona Sol

Founded in 2015, Kona Sol® is a Southern California-based swimwear brand inspired by surf culture, active living, and eco-consciousness. Sisters Alexis and Kayla launched the company to fuse high-performance athletic suits with the bohemian aesthetic of the West Coast beach lifestyle.

As lifelong swimmers and surfers, the sisters were motivated by the lack of stylish, sustainable options designed for an active beach community. Their goal was to create quality swimsuits as unique as the women who wear them.

Kona Sol® offers a wide selection of bikinis, one-piece suits, mix-and-match separates, rash guards and swim cover ups. Their line includes everything from vintage-inspired and sporty silhouettes to retro color blocking and artistic prints from local designers.

At the core of the brand is a commitment to technical innovation, ethical manufacturing, and eco-friendly business practices. Their proprietary KonaTexTM and KonaFitTM fabrics offer quick-drying four-way stretch, UV protection, and bonded seams to prevent chafing.

Kona Sol® produces their sustainable swimsuits locally in Southern California to oversee quality and fair labor standards. As ocean lovers, they also use recycled nylon, minimize packaging waste, and partner with eco-shipping companies.

Above all, Kona Sol® creates quality swimsuits tailored for the diverse community of confident, adventurous women who live life to the fullest. To learn more and shop online, visit kona-sol.com.

Our Clients Thought

I absolutely love my new Kona Sol bikini! As a surfer girl born and raised in LA, I've tried just about every swimsuit brand out there. Kona Sol's La Jolla bikini top is hands-down the most comfortable yet stylish bikini I've owned. The fabric is so soft and stretchy, it allows me to paddle out and pop up on my board without any restriction. The cropped style shows just a peek of midriff which looks super cute. And the range of vintage-inspired prints are to die for - I get so many compliments! The matching bottoms are flattering and stay put without digging. I appreciate that Kona Sol uses sustainable, recycled materials too. I used to think I'd have to sacrifice style for function with swimwear, but not with Kona Sol! This is my new go-to surf bikini.

    As a swim coach and open-water swimming enthusiast, I need a competitive swimsuit that can keep up with my active lifestyle. Kona Sol's Malibu one-piece is perfect for both my workouts and my outdoor swim races. The bonded seams create a smooth silhouette that won't slow me down, and the quick-drying KonaTex fabric resists chafing. I like the medium leg cut of the suit - not too low or too high. The thick adjustable straps stay secure whether I'm doing laps or open-water. For meets, I love the sleek color blocked paneling which also provides extra control across the core. Kona Sol proves you don't have to sacrifice coverage and function to look fast in the water. This will be my go-to racing suit this season!

      As a busy mom of three kids, I appreciate a swimsuit that can keep up with non-stop activity at the beach or pool! I chose Kona Sol's active rashguard set for myself and the matching kids' version for my little ones. The quick-dry fabric, full coverage, and UPF 50 protection are perfect for a full day outdoors. The athletic racerback tank is so flattering and the coordinating swim leggings provide security when I'm chasing after my toddler in the waves. For my young girls, the short sleeve rashguard and swim skort offer comfort while protecting their sensitive skin. The bright, fun patterns make them easy to spot! Kona Sol's mix-and-match rashguards suit our always-on-the-go lifestyle. I don't have to stress about sun protection or wardrobe malfunctions with these durable, quality suits from Kona Sol.

        My girlfriends and I recently took a tropical getaway to Hawaii. I knew I'd need a few new swimsuits for all of the beach lounging, snorkeling, and sunset pool parties we had planned. After browsing options online, I decided to splurge on a mix of bikinis and one-pieces from Kona Sol. Everything arrived super quickly with Kona Sol's speedy shipping. The suits are even cuter in person! I'm obsessed with the retro-inspired fits. The high-waisted bottoms are so flattering on my figure, and the off-the-shoulder one-piece made me feel like a glamorous Old Hollywood starlet! After a week of wearing these suits non-stop, I can attest to the quality. The fabrics are luxuriously soft and remained vibrant despite daily saltwater and chlorine. These are now my favorite swimsuits for travel - durable, on-trend, and made for adventures. I'll be a loyal Kona Sol customer for life!

          As an athletic guy who enjoys surfing, stand-up paddleboarding, and playing beach volleyball, I need a men's swimsuit that can handle rugged activities. Most guys' boardshorts just aren't made for performance. So I was thrilled when Kona Sol launched their new LoHi Performance Boardshort - it's designed with technology and mobility in mind. The stretch microfiber fabric is so lightweight and quick-drying. The shorts provide great freedom of movement whether I'm paddling out or diving in the sand to save a ball. They have just enough length for coverage during water sports but the tailored cut is flattering. After testing them out for weeks in and out of the water, I can say these are the most functional, durable boardshorts I've owned. It's awesome to finally find an athletic swimsuit made for men who love water sports as much as I do!
