Board Shorts:
Great Investment for Active Swimmers

Board shorts are great for any surfer or active swimmer. They are more comfortable, better built, and are intended for activity, unlike bathing suit bottoms.
Board shorts generally have a draw string waist, making them much more secure than bikini bottoms or swim shorts.
You don’t have to worry about bikini ties coming undone or swim shorts falling down.
They are also very lightweight and quick drying so they won’t slow you down.
You may think you are limited in selection compared to swim shorts or bikini bottoms. But in reality they make as many board shorts styles as other swimming bottoms, if not more.
Brands such as Roxy and Billabong are very popular and generally reasonably priced. They are extremely durable and will last years if you wash and care for them properly.
Overall, board shorts are great investments for any active swimmer looking for great gear in the water.
