After Selling Out 6x Our Best-Sellers Just Got Restocked 🔥

Imagine swim shorts that finally feels like it was made for you. No more shorts that pinch, ride up, or make you feel out of place. Our Active Swim Shorts are designed for every body and every identity - giving you the freedom to swim, move, and live with complete comfort and confidence

✨ Here’s What Sets Them Apart:

  • Confidence-Boosting Fit: Customers say it best: “The best fitting shorts I’ve ever owned. Worth every cent.” Designed to move with your body, not against it.

  • Buttery-Soft, Chafe-Free Liner: No rubbing, no digging, no irritation. “The first shorts I’ve found that genuinely don’t chafe.”

  • Made for More Than Swimming: Lake dips, gym sessions, hikes, travel, or just lounging - these aren’t single-use swimwear, they’re your go-everywhere shorts.

  • Inclusive Sizing (XS–6XL): Tested on real people, with customers from size XS to 6XL saying “I finally did a happy dance when I found swimwear that fits me.”

  • Pockets That Actually Work: Two deep side pockets + one zip pocket that holds your phone or keys securely. “Life savers!”

  • Durable & Reliable: UV-protective, chlorine-resistant, and quick-drying for endless summers.

  • Sensory-Friendly Design: No tags, no harsh seams. Customers tell us: “A sensory nightmare avoided.”


💙 Why You’ll Love Them:

Our community has told us time and again: these shorts make them feel like themselves. For some, that means finally swimming without chafing. For others, it’s having shorts that fit comfortably in every size. And for many, it’s the joy of feeling included - whether queer, plus-size, sensory-sensitive, or simply someone who values comfort.

These shorts aren’t just swimwear - they’re a way to feel like yourself, every time you wear them.

So happy with these shorts

So happy with these shorts. We love an active holiday - snorkling, walking, scuba diving, climbing rocks by beach - and these shorts mean I can relax and enjoy all of it without care. Super soft comfortable material that doesn’t make a noise when you walk. The postage to UK was very efficient too. Thank you for having me covered.

Really comfortable!

Really comfortable! Love that it has pockets that are separate to the lining of the shorts. Elastic band doesn’t feel too tight and constricting.

Finally, swimwear I can feel myself in

I’ve reached the age of 49 never having felt comfy in swimwear, and I’m so happy to have found Unity Cove. Growing up in the 1980s, I never felt like myself in the swimwear I had to wear. One-piece swimsuits felt horrible and were too short (I’ve got a long body). Bikinis were too skimpy and delicate. Growing up, I preferred so-called “boys’ clothes” and would have loved to wear shorts in the pool, but this wasn’t allowed.

When I saw an ad for Unity Cove, the swimwear looked great, so I took the plunge and ordered. The package arrived in just a few days, and it was exciting tracking its journey from Australia to the UK. It arrived in time for my summer holiday and I’m thrilled with it. Sizing is spot on, quality is great and I love that it is suitable for the gym or running too: thank you so much, Konnie!

Amazing fit! I love these shorts.

These are the most comfortable and best fitting shorts I have owned. I feel so uncomfortable in women’s shorts and swimwear, they’re always too tight and short. These are perfect and I think I will live in them in summer whether swimming or not. Will definitely need some more pairs. Thanks!

Founder’s Note - From Konnie

I never set out to build a swimwear brand.

For years, I dreaded beach days - not because I didn’t love the ocean, but because I never felt at home in what I had to wear.

Men’s shorts never fit right. Women’s one-pieces never felt like me. Every option was a reminder that I didn’t belong in the boxes fashion tried to put me in.

Unity Cove grew out of that discomfort - and today, as I tip into my second year, I’m still running it out of my apartment.

Orders get packed on my living room, racks of swimwear line the hallway, and it’s messy and imperfect in the best possible way.

Every time I print a shipping label, I think about the person on the other side of it - someone who, like me, just wants to feel comfortable and free in their own skin.

What started as my personal frustration has become something much bigger: a community rewriting the rules of fashion. A place where nobody has to compromise who they are to enjoy the water, the sun, and themselves.

If you’re here reading this, please know this brand exists because of you. Every order, every message, every story reminds me why I keep going - and proves that inclusive swimwear matters.

I’m endlessly grateful you’ve taken a chance on me and on Unity Cove.

- Konnie (She/They), Founder & Designer, Unity Cove
