Product Information

Full details

The Splash About UV Sun & Sea Suit is an essential garment for active children aged 1-2 who spend time in the water or at the beach. It provides a strategic blend of thermal neoprene insulation to keep children warm in the water and flexible, UPF 50+ polyester panels for sun protection and ease of movement. While it is perfect for all-day play and easy changing, parents should note that it is designed primarily as a swim aid and sun protector, rather than a full-coverage dry wetsuit.

FAQs

Is the whole suit made of neoprene?

No, it features a 1mm neoprene core for warmth, while the sides and sleeves are made from flexible UPF 50+ polyester.

Can my child wear this in the sea?

Yes, it is designed for both pool and sea use, providing protection against wind and sand.

How do I choose the right size?

This specific variant is designed for children aged 1-2 years. Check the manufacturer's size guide if you are between sizes.

Does it provide sun protection everywhere?

The suit provides UPF 50+ protection on the covered areas. Always apply sunscreen to exposed skin like the face and hands.

Is the zip easy for a toddler to pull?

The back zip is designed for adults to assist the child with, though it is engineered for smooth operation even when the suit is wet.

Troubleshooting

Zip is difficult to move.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and rinse away any sand or salt build-up.

Suit feels loose in the water.

Verify that the child is within the 1-2 year size range; a loose suit may not provide optimal warmth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal warmth for young children in the pool or sea
  • High level of UV protection (UPF 50+) built into the fabric
  • Back zipper design allows for quick changes
  • Lightweight and non-restrictive for active play
  • Durable materials designed for frequent water use

Cons

  • Not a full-neoprene suit, so thermal retention is lower than professional gear
  • Sizing is specific to children aged 1-2 years
  • Requires proper rinsing to maintain fabric integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Splash About UV Sun & Sea Suit, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Rinsing: Always rinse the suit in fresh, cold water immediately after use to remove chlorine or saltwater.
  2. Drying: Air dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods, as it can degrade the fabric and UV protection qualities over time.
  3. Storage: Ensure the suit is completely dry before folding to prevent odors or mildew.
  4. Compatibility: This suit is best paired with additional sun hats and sunscreen on exposed areas like the face and neck for complete protection.
  5. Washing: Do not use harsh detergents or bleach; if necessary, use a mild hand-wash soap.
