3-Piece Swimming Abaya: Complete Full-Coverage Swimwear
Our 3-piece swimming abaya consists of a long abaya, matching pants and a ready-to-wear hijab. This combination provides a coordinated, full-coverage outfit without the need to combine several separate garments.
The long abaya provides generous coverage with its loose-fitting silhouette. The pants complete the outfit for greater practicality, while the ready-to-wear hijab creates a complete solution for activities in and around the water.
This makes the swimming abaya particularly suitable for women searching for complete Islamic swimwear with a loose and modest fit.
Special Swim Fabric Designed for Water
A traditional everyday abaya is not designed to be worn in water. A swimming abaya, however, is made from special swim fabric better suited to aquatic environments.
This choice of material maintains the flowing appearance and coverage associated with an abaya while creating clothing intended for beach, pool and recreational water activities.
Our models therefore combine a loose-fitting design with swim-appropriate fabric, distinguishing a swimming abaya from a conventional everyday abaya.
Internal Safety Attachment for Added Practicality
Our swimming abayas also feature an internal safety attachment. This detail helps keep the outfit more securely in place during use and contributes to its practicality around water.
Combined with the matching pants and hijab, this design creates a complete 3-piece modest swimwear set for women who prefer generous coverage and a loose silhouette.
Modest Beachwear for Muslim Women
A swimming abaya is particularly suitable for women who want to maintain a long and covering outfit during days at the seaside.
It can accompany different moments of a beach holiday, from walking along the shore and spending time by the sea to cooling off in the water or enjoying a family day near the pool.
Its specific construction makes the swimming abaya an alternative to conventional beachwear for women looking for loose-fitting Muslim swimwear with greater coverage.
Swimming Abaya vs Burkini: What's the Difference?
The women's burkini is one of the best-known forms of modest Islamic swimwear. However, the swimming abaya offers a noticeably different silhouette.
While many burkinis feature a more athletic tunic-and-pants design, the swimming abaya is inspired by the long, loose and flowing silhouette associated with an abaya.
A swimming abaya may therefore appeal particularly to women looking for:
-
a long, loose-fitting silhouette;
-
generous body coverage;
-
a complete modest swimwear outfit;
-
matching pants;
-
a ready-to-wear hijab;
-
an abaya-inspired design.
Choosing between a swimming abaya and a burkini ultimately depends on your preferred style, fit and desired level of coverage.
Modest Swimwear & Islamic Swimwear for Women
Full-coverage women's swimwear is commonly searched for as modest swimwear, Islamic swimwear, Muslim swimwear and full coverage swimwear.
The swimming abaya fits naturally into this category by offering a different approach to modest bathing clothes: an abaya-inspired silhouette combined with fabric intended for aquatic environments.
It is suitable for Muslim women looking for modest Islamic swimwear, as well as women who simply prefer longer, looser and more covering clothing at the beach or pool.
Swimming Abaya, Swimming Jilbab or Burkini: Which One to Choose?
Women looking for greater coverage at the beach or pool now have several different options.
A burkini generally offers a more athletic silhouette. A swimming jilbab takes inspiration from the traditional jilbab, while a swimming abaya stands out with its long, flowing abaya-inspired design.
These different styles allow each woman to choose full-coverage swimwear according to her preferences for fit, coverage and overall appearance.
For the Beach, Pool, Seaside & Holidays
A swimming abaya can accompany a variety of leisure activities around the water, including:
-
beach and seaside outings;
-
visits to the pool;
-
cooling off in the water;
-
summer and seaside holidays;
-
family days around the water;
-
recreational water activities.
For intensive or competitive swimming, choose sportswear specifically designed for that purpose.
How to Choose a Swimming Abaya
Before purchasing your women's swimming abaya, carefully check the measurements and size guide provided on each product page.
Size and fit are particularly important for maintaining the comfortable, loose silhouette expected from this type of clothing. Also check the specifications of each individual model, as measurements, colors and details may vary.
