Summer 2026 trend

When sun protection becomes a true trend

Long reserved for people with skin that is very sensitive to the sun, UV-protective swimwear now appeals to an increasingly wide audience. And for good reason: it lets you enjoy the beach, swimming or water sports while limiting the skin's exposure to UV rays on covered areas.

Bonjour ! La Matinale on TF1 understands this well. In her Top ou Stop, Anaïs Grangerac looks back at the must-have swimsuits of summer 2026 and presents Ker Sun styles as an aesthetic solution that is especially suitable when sun exposure is high, whether at the beach, paddleboarding, sailing, kayaking or during another water activity.


Understanding the issue

Why wear UV-protective swimwear?

Many people think water provides enough protection from the sun's rays. In reality, this protection is limited: some UV rays can pass through water, while the surface of the water and sand can reflect rays and increase skin exposure.

Even under a parasol or while swimming, UV rays can still reach the skin, especially through reflection or indirect exposure. This is why comprehensive sun protection remains essential, especially when sunshine is strong.

UV-protective swimwear with UPF 50+ provides high, reliable textile protection on covered areas. UPF 50+ fabric means that it takes about 50 times the UV dose to cause erythema on protected skin compared with unprotected skin.

It therefore helps you enjoy holidays with greater peace of mind, especially during prolonged exposure. It is, of course, still recommended to complement this protection with sunscreen on uncovered areas, a hat, sunglasses, shade-seeking and limiting exposure during the sunniest hours.


The right choice

How to choose UV-protective swimwear

Not all garments protect from the sun in the same way. To choose truly protective swimwear, look for:

  • A certified UPF 50+ rating
  • Long sleeves if you spend several hours in the sun
  • A lightweight, breathable and comfortable fabric, especially in hot weather
  • A fit suited to your activity: swimming, snorkelling, paddleboarding, sailing, kayaking or relaxing on the beach

At Ker Sun, every style has been designed to provide high sun protection on covered areas, without compromising on style or freedom of movement.
