Eco-friendly dive apparel

Spacefish Army Psychedelic Mermaid Shorts
Made from recycled single-use plastics, these Psychedelic Mermaid Shorts do more than just look fabulous. They’re SPF50-rated to shield you from the sun and feature practical side pockets to hold your seashell collection (or, you know, your phone). The contour fit hugs curves perfectly, making you look great no matter if you’re diving, hiking, or binge-watching Blue Planet.
From their soft fabric to their reinforced seams, they’re ready for any adventure while keeping the oceans cleaner. Because saving the planet doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style, period.

Why blend in? The Cosmic Whale Rashguard is crafted from recycled plastics. It’s an eco-friendly masterpiece that features a salt-resistant zipper, thumbholes, and a high collar for ultimate sun protection. Oh, and the psychedelic design? Out of this world!
You can be snorkeling or kayaking, this rashguard has your back (literally). The 4-way stretch fabric ensures you can move freely, while the SPF50 protection keeps the sun at bay. Sustainability never looked — or felt — so good.
Scubapro Everflex Yulex Wetsuit
The Scubapro Everflex Yulex Wetsuit proves you can dive deep without leaving a deep carbon footprint. Crafted from Yulex — a 100% plant-based natural rubber sourced from FSC-certified rubber tree farms — this suit is as sustainable as it is warm and flexible.
Engineered for divers who love chilly waters, this wetsuit doesn’t just keep divers warm — it’s practically a personal heater. With multi-thickness panels and Diamond Span interior lining, you’ll feel like a human thermos bottle. Plus, the thoughtful design reduces heat loss without sacrificing flexibility, so you can swim without feeling restricted.
And frankly, every detail screams eco-innovation. Dope-dyed yarn saves water and energy, solvent-free water-based glue keeps it green, and the interior and exterior linings are made from 45 recycled plastic bottles.
High-performance diving essentials
A gift guide for eco-conscious divers can’t go without actual diving essentials, so let’s get into it.

So, they’re kind to the planet from production to your dive bag.
Performance-wise, these fins are a diver’s dream. The vented design reduces drag and fatigue, while the stiffening rails maximize your propulsion. Glide through the water with minimal effort! Also, the wider blade adds power without compromising maneuverability, and the shorter length makes it easy to pack for your next big underwater adventure. Finally, they come with sturdy spring straps for a secure, comfortable fit.
