If there is one thing, we love here at Sand Surf Co. it’s swimwear. And what could possibly be better than a beautifully handcrafted bikini? Why, a beautifully handcrafted bikini with a purpose of course! Which is why we are proud to carry Capittana - a handcrafted brand in Perú designed to empower women. Capittana employs women who have left high risk home scenarios and offers them a safe workspace as well as fair pay. In fact, Capittana’s mission shines so bright, the brand was even named to portray a “strong, confident and independent woman who lives life with passion”. In a world of crochet loving consumers, we choose Capittana for their commitment to empower the women of Peru and respect the environment too! The time, effort and care dedicated to each collection radiates through the final handcrafted products. While we adore all things Capittana here at Sand, we wanted to showcase a few of these items we just can’t get enough of this summer.
Capittana’s got us covered with all the summer essentials, with the most obvious being swimsuits! One of our favorites has to be the Capittana Kenya Bikini. The blue shimmer fabric creates a fashionable look while the underwire design provides exceptional comfort and support.
If you are on the hunt for the perfect tanning suit this summer, Capitanna's got you covered in that department too. It doesn't get much better than the Xime Check Roses Bikini. The strapless design paired with the high leg cut of the bottoms allows you to lounge in the sun without worrying about the hassle of tan lines. As if that wasn't enough, the fun floral pattern and hearted details makes this bikini the ideal summer suit.

While swimwear is an undeniable summer necessity, what's a bikini without a cover up? The Capittana Pam Crochet Ivory Set is THE coverup of the summer. Crochet seems to be all the rage this year and no one does it better than Capittana. Between the scalloped edges and the tie sleeve detail, the attention to detail in this set is unreal. Style it with a colorful suit for a standout look or a nude bikini to wear this coverup as an outfit!

If you like what you see we have great news for you...there is plenty more where that came from. If you prefer dresses to sets for coverups (or you love both like us) we've got you covered. The Capittana Hope Ivory Dress is an eye-catching long sleeve mini dress complete with ties down the middle leaving the look up to you. Complete with the perfectly placed crochet details this dress is a fun and flirty look for summer.
Thankfully the crochet styles don't stop there. One of our favorite looks for the season is the Paloma Set. The pastel version is a great choice for a tropical vacation or a sunset stroll while we love the black and white option for a romantic date night. The crochet design makes the outfit breathable and comfortable for the summer weather. And of course, this set (along with all of Capittana's pieces) is handcrafted by Peruvian artisans and sustainably made.
