Ways to Get In The Water This Winter
For water lovers, winter can feel like a long stretch of dry land. And if you find yourself missing the feeling of slipping into your favorite swimsuit, we’ve got good news: there are plenty of ways to get your water fix, even when the weather’s a little chilly. Whether you’re looking for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, here are some creative ways to embrace aquatic fun this winter season.
3 Ways to Swim in Style This Winter
1. Indoor Pools & Waterparks: Plan a Hotel Staycation
No beach? No problem! Indoor pools and waterparks are a great way to escape the cold while still diving into your favorite activities. Book a night at a local hotel with a pool, or spend a day riding waterslides and floating in lazy rivers.
What to Wear: Layer one of your favorite rash guards under a cozy sweatshirt paired with swim bottoms under joggers for an easy transition from lounging to splashing.
2. Hot Springs: Plan a Romantic Getaway
Nothing beats soaking in a steaming natural hot spring while surrounded by crisp winter air. Whether you’re planning a romantic weekend or a fun girls’ trip, hot springs are equal parts relaxing and rejuvenating. Bonus points if there’s snow on the ground—it makes the contrast even more magical.
What to Wear: Choose a sleek, comfortable swim top that’s made for soaking (and stunning in vacation photos for Insta). Try one of our peplum swim tops with a classic bikini bottom or boy short.
3. Sensory Deprivation Tanks & Spas: Plan a Day of Self-Care
Need a little zen in your life? Treat yourself to a day of relaxation with a sensory deprivation float or spa session. Floating in warm, buoyant water is like a mini vacation for your mind and body—and it’s perfect for combating winter stress.
What to Wear: Go for a streamlined suit that’s spa-friendly and super comfy. We recommend full coverage one-piece swimsuits.
Embrace the Winter Water Vibes
Winter doesn’t have to mean saying goodbye to your love of water activities. From spa days to indoor adventures, there are plenty of ways to make a splash even when it’s chilly outside. So, grab your favorite Lime Ricki swimsuit, plan an outing (or staycation), and dive into the water—because winter fun is what you make it! If you're a reach beach bum, but the rest of the fam is insisting on a winter excursion somewhere with snow, don't worry! We can make a few recommendations for locations that offer the best of both worlds.

Even when you're not getting in the water, who says your favorite swimsuit can’t make an appearance in your winter wardrobe? Try pairing a Lime Ricki swim top with high-waisted leggings or layer a one-piece rash guard under a cozy cardigan.

Whether you're hitting a yoga class or hitting the slopes, swimwear can add a splash of fun to your look without you even getting wet.
