In Bali for the Holidays? Here’s Where to Shop for the Swimwear You’ll Actually Want to Live In

Bali in December is a dream: warm water, endless beach days, and the kind of holiday energy that invites you to slow down and reconnect-with yourself, the sun, and the sea. Whether you’ve just touched down or you’re planning a last-minute island escape to ring in the new year, one thing’s certain-you’ll need great swimwear.

Not the kind that digs in, goes see-through when wet, or slips mid-surf. We’re talking about swimwear that’s designed for movement, sun-safe, flattering, and sustainable. The kind you feel strong, feminine, and confident in.

And if you’re in or near Canggu? You’re in luck. Welcome to Ocean Soul Swimwear-your go-to bikini shop in Bali for surf-approved, ethically made pieces that feel as good as they look.

Why Tourists Are Flocking to Canggu for Swimwear

Canggu is the heart of Bali’s surf and lifestyle scene. Between the beach clubs, yoga classes, coffee shops, and sunset surf sessions, it’s no wonder tourists are on the hunt for swimwear that does it all.

But here’s the thing-not all swimwear in Bali is created equal. Too many racks are packed with throwaway fast fashion or suits that stretch, fade, or fall apart after one wave.

That’s where we do things differently.

Ocean Soul Swimwear: More Than Just a Bikini Store

Located just minutes from Berawa Beach, our boutique is a hidden gem for those seeking premium Bali swimwear and resort pieces that are built to last. Every suit is designed right here on the island and inspired by the women who wear them-surfers, freedivers, yogis, adventurers, and slow-living seekers.

We use:

• Italian regenerated fabrics made from ocean waste
• Double lining to prevent transparency and enhance support
• High-quality YKK zippers that last
• Clever panel cuts that sculpt and flatter all body shapes
• Limestone eco-neoprene for spring suits that feel soft, not stiff

Whether you’re after a sleek black one-piece or a seamless bikini that can handle the surf at Batu Bolong, you’ll find it here.

What to Try On In-Store Right Now

If you’re browsing bikini Canggu on Google, here’s what to actually try on:

1. The Sulawesi Long Sleeve One Piece – Midnight T

Our cult-favourite, now with thumbholes. Offers UPF 50+ sun protection, incredible waist shaping, and stays put in surf. Perfect for early morning beach walks, paddling out at Echo, or just lounging in full sun.

2. The Mentawai One Piece

Timeless, sculpted, and beautifully lined-this is your island-hopping one-piece. Swim, style with a wrap skirt, or wear under a loose shirt for a post-beach café stop.

3. Seamless Bikinis – Gili Top + Sumba Bottoms

If you want no-fuss, surf-tested comfort, these are your go-tos. Zero hardware, double lined, and buttery soft. Available in a range of core and seasonal tones to suit any skin tone.

4. Limestone Eco-Neoprene Spring Suits

For those heading to Uluwatu, Medewi, or even Nusa Lembongan for a New Year’s surf mission, our spring suits offer warmth and style. Bonus: they’re made using a lower-impact neoprene alternative, so you can feel good about what you’re wearing.

Resort wear Add-Ons for Island Living

Beyond swimwear, we’ve got resort wear Bali essentials that elevate your holiday look:

• Flowing sarongs in earthy tones
• UPF visors for long beach days
• Organic reef-safe zinc sunscreen
• After-sun skincare and magnesium body spa
• Beach totes + dry pouches for beach trips

Everything in store is handpicked to enhance your time on the island-and can double as thoughtful gifts to take home.

Why Shoppers Love Our Bali Boutique

We hear it every day:

“I’ve never felt so confident in a swimsuit.”
“Finally, something that fits AND flatters.”
“This feels like a second skin.”

At Ocean Soul Swimwear, we believe you don’t need to change your body to wear a swimsuit—you just need a better swimsuit.
