Girls' Beach Cover Ups
A girls' beach cover up is the layer she throws on over a wet swimming costume to walk to the cafe, the car or the hotel room. The cover ups here run from baby sizes to age 15, with separate Baby, Kids and Teens pages for a narrower choice. A cover up helps keep the sun off her shoulders and saves a scramble for a towel when the wind picks up.
A swim poncho works like a towel she can wear and change under, while a lighter cover up dries faster and suits walks between swims. When you buy a girls' beach cover up, choose her usual size so it slips over her costume easily, or go one size up for more length. Rinse salt water and chlorine out after each beach day, let it dry fully and follow the care label.
Your questions answered
MINOTI girls' beach cover ups are loose layers to wear over a swimming costume, for girls aged 0 to 15 in centimetre sizes, with a 5-year-old usually in 116 cm and a 9-year-old in 140 cm.
Is a swim poncho or a cover up better for a day at the beach?
A poncho dries her off and gives privacy for changing, so it suits swimming days. A light cover up suits sunny walks between swims. Size both by height: a 5-year-old usually takes 116 cm.
How do I pick the right size girls' beach cover up online?
Choose by her height in centimetres, as with her clothes. A 7-year-old usually takes 128 cm. Go one size up if you want a longer cover up that shades more of her legs.
