For curated designer swimwear in Carlsbad's La Costa corridor, Everything But Water at The Forum on Calle Barcelona carries over 50 resort-focused labels spanning bikinis, one-pieces, D-plus cup sizes, cover-ups, and sandals. Founded in 1984 in Orlando, the chain now operates roughly 100 locations across the United States and pairs each collection with coastal jewelry lines like those at gorjana down the Forum walkway. The Forum Carlsbad location anchors a resort-lifestyle cluster in the 92009 ZIP code near the Omni La Costa Resort, positioning the store to serve both North County residents and hotel guests. Full-torso fit consultation is built into the shopping model — associates size across brands rather than relying on generic S-M-L charts, a concierge approach that complements the pre-vacation prep work at Coastal Cowgirl Spray Tans & Sugaring nearby. The specialty inventory includes chlorine-resistant performance fabrics rated at 300-plus hours of pool exposure and UPF 50-plus rashguards engineered for extended sun protection along Carlsbad State Beach.
