Life in Hawaii pretty much necessitates a solid swim cover-up collection. Most of mine are upwards of 5 years old, so I decided to try out a few new ones from Amazon. I’m really into the full length caftan-type cover ups right now, and Amazon is such a great source for cute and affordable options. I shared this one in an Instagram post last weekend and it was such a hit that I decided to share 6 really cute Amazon swim cover-up options that are all $25.99 or less. Which one is your favorite? The long blue caftans (#1 and #6) are at the top of my list 🙂

I also did a try-on on Instagram Stories with all of these looks, so be sure to check that out if you’re interested in seeing them in motion and hearing more about them.

6 Affordable Swim Cover-Ups from Amazon

Look #1

What I’m wearing above:

• Light Blue and White Caftan:  This caftan is a dupe for a much more expensive one that I’d had my eye on for over a year.  Then I saw a woman wearing this one in Waikiki a few weeks ago and I went up to her and told her I liked it and she told me it was actually from Amazon!  I ordered it immediately lol.  It’s not cotton but the pattern is beautiful and the elastic at the front helps give this one-size-fits-all caftan some shape.  This makes me think of Palm Springs and you can easily wear this as a dress because it’s not sheer at all.  100% recommend this for an effortless and affordable look!
  • Sizing: one-size-fits-all (on the longer side though.  I’m 5’5″ and it almost skims the floor)
  • Price: $25.99
• Raffia Earrings
• Packable Sunhat with Navy Bow
• Sandals (old from Walmart but this is a similar moderately priced pair and this pair is a bit nicer.)

Look #2

What I’m wearing above:

• Long White Cover-up:  This is really lightweight and I love the details on the top and bottom of it.  It has pretty high slits on both sides but they’re aren’t so high that you feel too exposed.  It’s a bit sheer but that’s fine when it comes to cover-ups.
  • Sizing: one-size-fits-all (definitely on the longer size and the back touches the ground and I’m 5’5″)
  • Price: $23.99
• Raffia Earrings
• Sandals (old from Walmart but this is a similar moderately priced pair and this pair is a bit nicer.)

Look #3

What I’m wearing above:

• Short Button Front Cover-up:  I LOVE the front of this cover-up so much!  It’s one of my favorite styles because it looks slightly dressier because of the buttons but it’s still really casual.  The fabric is lightweight and soft and the detail at the top is really pretty.  The back of the cover-up dips down a too bit long in my opinion, and I think that if they shortened it a few inches it would look better in the back.  The front is darling though.
  • Sizing: it only comes in one size but I’d say it fits like a small-medium
  • Price: $20.99
• Raffia Earrings
• Sandals (old from Walmart but this is a similar moderately priced pair and this pair is a bit nicer.)

Look #4

What I’m wearing above:

• Short Tassel Cover-up:  I’ve had this chiffon cover-up for about 3 years and it’s great.  Super lightweight because it’s chiffon (it’s see-thru because of this too) but it’s an easy one to throw on that I’ve gotten lots of use out of.  Comes in about 20 different colors and also comes in a mid-length version, which I’m interested in trying because it looks very cute.
  • Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing the small-medium
  • Price: $18.99
• Raffia Earrings
• Straw Sunhat (old from Target but this one is similar)
• Tiffany & Co. Diamond Necklace (this one is similar and on Etsy and much cheaper)

Look #5

What I’m wearing above:

• Short Pompom Cover-up:  I’ve had this pompom cover-up for about 3 years too, and actually wore it in this post a few years ago!  It’s chiffon so it’s see-thru and the pompoms are a fun detail.  Comes in lots of colors!
  • Sizing: one-size-fits-all
  • Price: $16.99
• Raffia Earrings
• Sandals (old from Walmart but this is a similar moderately priced pair and this pair is a bit nicer.)

Look #6

What I’m wearing above:

• Navy and White Caftan:  This one is currently not listed even though I purchased it at the end of January! Not sure what happened but hopefully it’s just temporarily out of stock.  This one is similar though, and it’s just in a different color-way (more like the first caftan in this post).  I’ll keep an eye on it though and will try to update this post once it’s back in stock.  I’m OBSESSED with this one!  It’s not see-thru at all so you could easily wear it as a dress instead of as a cover-up!
  • Sizing: one-size-fits-all (on the longer side though.  I’m 5’5″ and it almost skims the floor)
  • Price: $25.99
• Raffia Earrings
• Packable Sunhat with Cream Bow
• Sandals (old from Walmart but this is a similar moderately priced pair and this pair is a bit nicer.)
