Hola!! My name is Carina and I was born and raised in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. Carina’s Bikinis began when I was 13 after I realized most bikinis couldn’t handle the waves. So, I grabbed an old rash guard, cut it up, and sewed my first “surf top.” It wasn’t perfect, but it stayed on, beginning my passion for designing functional, sustainable swimwear.

After months of trial and error, I launched my business on Instagram. Now, I'm 18 and still love designing and sewing each authentic piece. Every suit I create reflects my dedication to quality, sustainability, and designing swimwear that moves with you.
