Manaia was born from the ocean — and from a quiet refusal to compromise. As women who spent countless hours in the water, we knew the feeling well: swimwear that shifted, softened, or failed us the moment conditions became real. Designs made to be looked at, not lived in. Strength treated as an afterthought.But the ocean never asks us to shrink. It asks us to show up fully. Manaia began with a simple intention — to create surf swimwear that honors the power of women and the sea alike. Pieces that move with confidence, stay grounded in function, and carry meaning beyond aesthetics. The name Manaia comes from Polynesian ocean culture, where the Manaia is known as a guardian — a presence that moves between realms, protecting what is sacred. That symbolism resonated deeply: women moving between strength and softness, land and sea, intuition and action. Manaia is not about conquering the ocean. It’s about listening to it. Every piece is designed with purpose — tested in real conditions, shaped by movement, and made to support women who trust their bodies and respect the water they enter.This brand is for those who find clarity in the lineup. Who draw power from salt and sun. Who know that strength doesn’t need to shout — it flows. Manaia is our offering to the ocean, and to the women who feel most themselves within it.

Something powerful is rising with the tide.
