WHO IT'S FOR: For the active tween, look no further. Complete with long sleeves, quick-drying fabric, and thumbholes to keep everything in place, it'll be a go-to for surfing, swimming, diving, and the like.

ADDITIONAL THINGS TO KNOW: The lycra fabric is ultra-resilient—it snaps back like a pro and lasts five to 10 times longer.

WHY IT MADE THE LIST: Though it's one of the absolute cutest styles on the list (hello, one-shoulder ruffle), this suit just so happens to be the most affordable. At under $20 a pop, you may as well pick up another color while you're at it—you've got yellow stripes and solid black to choose from.

STYLE WITH: This one will transition perfectly from beach to boardwalk with a cute sarong or pair of cover-up pants.

WHY IT MADE THE LIST: When it comes to fashion and function, J.Crew knows best.

USER REVIEW: "We just installed a pool, and I knew my daughter was going to need lots of new bathing suits. We used to buy from ON each year, but when I purchased these in April, we weren't going into any stores. I was worried about ordering online, but these ended up exceeding my expectations. I purchased four different colors and styles of Kanu suits, and she loves them all! They fit like a dream too."
