Most of us encounter situations where a swimsuit is necessary.
For those of you who actually own swimwear lets's see your most modest swimsuit and the one(s) you usually wear.
These are mine (most modest one first).

I have 3 all tan through.
4" swimshorts.
2" trunks
Full cut briefs.
Tried tanga but thought it was too revealing for places that required a suit.

The tanga cut is a bold suit. You have to be pretty confidant to wear it on a busy beach!
It does let the sun shine on you.
Lateer,

My tangas are actually tan-through but I wear them because they are much more comfortable than any other suit I have tried and are VERY quick drying to the extent that when I use them in hotel pools they are dry enough to put in my trouser pocket when I am dressed.
I wore them for sunbathing and lunch on the roof terrace of our high class hotel on our recent holiday without any problems - not least from my wife who is much more conservative in dress than i am.

On occasions when I am feeling particularly bold I have worn this semi-transparent g-string for sunbathing at the same hotel.

I like to wear swim breifs with 1" - 1.5" sides at public beaches and pools. This summer coming I'll have white aussiebum briefs that go transparent when wet

When I have to wear a suit it's usually when I'm surfing or at the beach club we belong to and then it's board shorts and now I'm wearing a rash guard to protect against the sun. Not great for the no tan lines look but I make up for it at home on the back deck. If I'm swimming laps I wear a speedo type suit.

I bought a Brazillion cut bikini when we rented a house in the Bahamas many years ago. We also went on a cruise in Europe a few years ago and I bought a suit over there and they were briefs.

Most definitely a speedo whenever possible, if not nude. I prefer the low rise, 1sides the best. But on conservative beaches I wear retro style swim trunks, they go about mid thigh.

Speedo-type briefs for lap swimming and most US beaches. Thongs for beaches where they're not forbidden. I do have some trunks for visits with conservative friends. I fortunately do get to skinny-dip a fair amount during the year.

Have you tried tan through suits?
Lighter weight than ordinary suits so they feel less confining and dry faster.
That is the only kind I have at this point.

I don't tan,. Pale northern European skin and at risk for skin cancer. The briefs I wear are unlined and dry quickly anyway, and inexpensive. .
