FAQs

Stinger swimsuits, or more commonly known as ‘stinger suits’, are designed to provide a barrier of protection against jellyfish while being in water where these critters are found. There are a few key features to look for when purchasing a stinger swimsuit.

1. Fit: Ensure it fits snugly and covers your entire body.
2. Material: Choose high-quality Lycra, Nylon or Spandex for durability and comfort. Brave Beachwear uses only the best Italian fabrics wit a tight knit.
3. UV Protection: Look for UPF 50+ for sun protection.
4. Closure: Check for a strong zipper or closure.
5. Thickness: Balance thickness for protection and breathability.
6. Durability: Favour options with reinforced stitching and quality construction.
7. Features: Evaluate extras like hoods or thumb holes.

Our stinger swimsuits are designed with all these features, making them an ideal choice for your jellyfish protective wear.

A stinger swimsuit significantly reduces the likelihood of getting stung but may not provide 100% protection against jellyfish in all circumstances. They should be used along with other safety measures when swimming in areas with potential stinging hazards. 

Yes, our swimwear and stinger swimsuits are all made with fabric that provides UPF 50+ UV protection.

However, we encourage you to also apply UPF 50+ sunscreen where the swimwear doesn’t protect.
