Finding a reliable plus size tankini top with a shelf bra that handles active pool days shouldn’t mean compromising on comfort.

Finished with soft elastication around the neck and armholes, it guarantees a stable, secure fit that lets you stretch, dive, and move with absolute freedom.
Designed for real bodies
Flattering loose-fitting hemline with extra length for total peace of mind.
The Tani tankini is cut with a generous, silhouette that is intentionally looser around the waist and hips to prevent any clinging around the tummy area. This clever long-line design drapes beautifully over a full midsection or a longer body, ensuring elegant, modest coverage that stays perfectly in place. You can swim or exercise at the pool or beach knowing your swim top provides a smooth, unrestrictive silhouette that won’t ride up.
Inner ties keep your set in place

Q&A
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to wear a supportive bra under?
No, The built-in shelf bra is engineered with a firm, supportive under-bust elastic band that sits flush against the ribcage. It provides a secure, comfortable lift and a beautifully natural shape.
What is the best way to choose a size if i have a larger bust?
If you have a larger cup size and want to try the Tani design, we highly recommend selecting one size larger than your typical garment size. The elastic under-bust band provides fantastic, firm supportive tension that remains highly effective and locked-in even when sizing up for extra fabric coverage.
Can I connect this swim top to matching swim leggings or shorts?
Yes, absolutely. Inside the bottom hemline, there are specialized side ties designed to fasten directly to selected items from our swim bottom collection—including our knee-length shorts, three-quarter length, and full-length leggings. This creates a secure, unified swim system that won’t ride up in the surf or pool.

My first order from Oceanroad Swimwear won’t be my last! Despite all the good sizing advice, my tankini top (6xl) is a bit big but definitely wearable. The pink is so fluro I love it! The fabric and construction is excellent. I haven’t used the ties and mine didn’t swim up except for in a very aggressive spa!

I bought a tankini racer back top in blue & I have to say, it is great! I get a lot of compliments on it & I, more importantly at 74, feel good in it. It fits well & looks good. I wear it in our ocean baths swimming & it does the job whether I am free styling, breast stroking or walking.

Thanks so much for your feedback! I’m really glad to hear you’re happy with the quality and comfort of your swimwear. Sizing can be so tricky — especially in plus sizes, where measurements can vary a lot from brand to brand. To help with that, we include detailed garment size charts on every product page. Just click the ‘Garment Sizes (Unstretched)’ button — it gives exact measurements to help you choose the best fit.
