The coral reef ecosystems that cover our globe provide essential food and habitat to over 25% of all marine life. The parrotfish is a common animal found among these ecosystems and are a crucial keystone species who are responsible for cleaning the corals from harmful algae. The abundance of parrotfish can be related directly to the health of our coral reef ecosystems.

Advocate Apparel Inspired by the spotted parrotfish (cetoscarus ocellatus)

While parrotfish come in many amazing colors and patterns, this print is inspired by a male, terminal phase spotted parrotfish, native to the Indo-Pacific. Considered the most effective reef grazer, parrotfish serve an important function in maintaining the health of coral reefs. In fact, a 2014 IUCN report surveyed the health of Caribbean coral reefs from 1970-2012 and found that one of the most impactful actions we can take to restore the health of coral reef habitat is to protect parrotfish!

If that isn’t reason enough to love these bright and beautiful fish, an individual poops up to 200 lbs of sand a year, a critical source of sediment for beaches! For example, in Vakkaru Island in the Maldives, a 2015 study found that over 85% of their beach sand had been produced by parrotfish!

It took a couple of days to receive my order

I was on the beach yesterday and the bikini top and bottoms were secure as I jumped in the waves. The parrot fish bottom and top will be awesome to paddle board in. I love that it’s two bikinis in one! Love the colors!
Thank you,
Christine Aegean

Super cute swim top!

Both prints are really cute and the top seems well made. May not be enough support for busty gals, but good for me (34B).

Love the fit!!

Fits perfectly and joins the parrotfish crop top and leggings previously bought. Love both pattens and the synergy between the pink coral and parrot fish design is a hit. I can easily see this a my new fav swimsuit top for my Caribbean water activities,

Runs small

I have athletic non-curvy build with b cup but this top is a bit too small. I purchased size small since I usually get a small for the leggings (they fit perfectly). I have tried a different top (the tight reversible tank I think) in the past from waterlust in size small and also felt it was a bit small. I am 5’6” 115 lbs

Fav bikini, so worth it

I am a Florida girl & very active. This suit is amazing. I have been waiting so long for them to make bikinis after I fell in love with their other activewear but this one might be one of the best products yet and if you have never had this pattern - oh my word, it’s so vibrant & gorgeous!! I wear a 32c , 135 lbs, 5 ft 7 in - I got the regular bottoms with this top (not high rise) and I absolutely love it all! Thank you Waterlust!!! 🩵 🩷 💚

👏🏻Buy👏🏻it👏🏻!

Parrotfish are so beautiful and this print is my favorite from the waterlust crew. I love this bikini top! Since my...watermelons...are big, I was worried the top wouldn't fit. But it fits great! It's adjustable and that makes it perfect for the pool to the beach!
