Water trapped in the ear canal after every session is the reason a lot of people quietly stop swimming. It sits there for hours, it is uncomfortable, and it takes the pleasure out of the pool.
A single BOLLSEN Watersafe+ costs just 30p per swim over 100 uses. Grab the 4x Pack and that drops even further. Less than the price of a coffee to protect your ears all season.
For 30p, the water stays out. It’s not even a decision.
BOLLSEN Watersafe+ keeps water out from the very first swim.
No more of that muffled, sloshing feeling for hours afterwards. No more skipping the pool because you know what’s coming next.
Just clean, dry ears every session.
Earplugs that actually stay in through dives, flip turns, and open water. A genuine alternative to putty that goes sticky, foam that soaks through, and cheap flanged plugs that fall out the moment you push off the wall.
Swap the frustration for BOLLSEN Watersafe+, featuring hypoallergenic silicone that moulds to your ear canal and holds its seal at depth.
Water blocked. Seal held. Session done.
BOLLSEN Watersafe+ seals your ear canal from the very first swim. Trusted by over 1 million customers. Backed by a conical 2-lamellae design, hypoallergenic silicone, and lab-verified 24 dB noise reduction.
+650 verified reviews. IndyBest Test Winner. 40-day money-back guarantee. Zero risk. The only thing you stand to lose is water in your ears.
Watersafe+ earplugs are reusable up to 100 times, giving you about 3 months of reliable protection. With four packs, you are covered for up to a year.
Each set includes a durable case, so you can store your earplugs safely, protect them from sand and sun, and always find them easily on the go.
Custom earplugs from an audiologist cost £150 to £250 per pair. BOLLSEN Watersafe+ is a fraction of that. Thanks to the conical 2-lamellae design, the earplugs perfectly adapt to your ears, regardless of their shape. The soft silicone adapts to your ear canal and they feel custom-made from the very first swim.
The standard version fits most medium-sized ear canals. Works well for the majority of adults straight out of the box.
Ears too large or small for standard? Use our AI ear measurement. Send two photos of your ears. Our AI finds your exact size. Perfect fit guaranteed, no audiologist appointment needed.
Yes. This is the question every swimmer asks first, and for good reason. The conical 2-lamellae design locks to your ear canal rather than sitting loosely inside it. Body heat causes the silicone to adapt to your exact canal shape within the first few minutes, forming a secure seal. Customers report zero slippage through butterfly sets, tumble turns, and open water swell. The tab gives you full control for easy removal without tugging.
Yes, when they seal properly. The conical 2-lamellae design closes the ear canal, so water does not get in during swimming, diving or showering. Keeping the canal dry is the whole job of the plug, and the right size is what makes the seal reliable. Use the AI ear measurement if you are unsure. If your ears keep giving you trouble after swimming, that is worth raising with a GP or an audiologist.
Yes. Watersafe+ is not designed to block all sound. The 2-lamellae silicone seals water out while still allowing approximately 24 dB of ambient sound through. In practice, you can hear your coach calling instructions from the poolside, whistles, and safety signals from kayakers in open water. What you lose is the underwater roar. What you keep is everything you actually need to hear.
Very likely yes. Cold water entering the ear canal triggers something called caloric vestibular stimulation — cold water hitting the eardrum disrupts the balance signals your inner ear sends to your brain, causing vertigo and disorientation during and after long swims. It is a well-documented phenomenon in cold water and open water swimming. Keeping cold water out of the canal removes the trigger, which is what a sealing earplug does. If the dizziness persists, or it happens outside the water, see a GP.
That is a question for your GP or ENT specialist rather than for us. Watersafe+ is a swimming earplug, not a medical device, and we are not in a position to tell you what is safe for your ears. What we can tell you is what it does: the two-lamella silicone seals the ear canal to keep water out, and it is washable and reusable up to 100 times. Take that to your clinician and let them advise you.
Place the earplug on the tip of your finger and gently twist it into your ear canal with a slight rotating motion. It should seal the canal fully without needing to be forced. Once inserted correctly, you’ll feel the ambient sound reduce slightly. The tab sits flush outside the canal for easy removal. For the best seal, make sure you have the right size. If the standard version doesn’t feel secure, the AI ear measurement will get you the exact fit for your ear canal.

Easy to insert and stay in ears while swimming. Very satisfied.
First time I wore, one fell out, eventually found. When twisted well into the ear they seem very good though, no leaks. I really wish they were e. g. bright orange though as very hard to see in pool/bag. Container bit of a hassle with wet hands as twists to close, personally would prefer a breathable container.
Excellent customer service, efficient processing of order & reasonable value for money.
Takes a bit of time getting used to them, comfortable to wear & seems to keep most of the water out of my ears when swimming.
Possibly need to wear them in for a while.
Great for swimming
They are easy to insert into my ears, I am trying them out in the shower before going swimming in them, to get my ears used to them.
I can not even feel that I am wearing these ear plugs when I am swimming and I have no water whatsoever in my ears afterwards.
I loved them, comfy and tight but at the third day sea swimming, I lost one. Now I use my old ones again which have a band to secure them. Too bad.
These are expensive, even if bought in multiples which work out cheaper. But they are the best earplugs for swimming I’ve tried – comfortable, easy to insert/remove, and highly effective at keeping out water, and noise from screaming kids in the pool!
I purchased ear plugs to reduce the high pitch screaming of children in my aqua class and I have to say they have been very effective.
Small problem with original delivery. One ear piece was missing however Customer Services did exactly what it says on the tin. Responded immediately and sent out a new pair. Couldn't ask for more. Excellent. Cheers RBS
Thank you for your question.
Yes, our earplugs can be worn with a swim cap. Unlike many custom-made plugs, our earplugs feature an ergonomic, low-profile design that sits comfortably in the ear without protruding excessively. This helps minimise pressure from a swim cap and makes them comfortable to wear.
For the best possible fit, we also offer our AR-KI TECH online ear measurement service, which helps us determine the most suitable size for your ears. A proper fit is especially important for comfort when wearing a swim cap.
Please keep in mind that comfort can vary depending on the shape of the ear and how tightly the cap fits. If you have any other questions, we’ll be happy to help!
Hello,
Thank you very much for your message.
Yes, for an 8-year-old child we would recommend our Kidz earplugs rather than the standard Watersafe earplugs.
The Kidz model is designed specifically for smaller ear canals, so it provides a more suitable and comfortable fit for children. They are also designed for swimming and help blocking the amount of water entering the ear canal.
In addition, the Kidz earplugs provide noise reduction of up to 24 dB SNR, so they can also be useful in noisy environments, travel, events, or other situations where reducing surrounding noise may be helpful.
For a child who trains in the water several times per week, the smaller size and water-resistant design would generally make the Kidz model the more appropriate choice.
If you have any further questions, need help, please feel free to contact us at any time. We will be very happy to help.
Best regards,
Hello,
Thank you for your question.
Based on our internal testing and customer feedback, each pair can typically be used at least 100 times.
With proper care, they can often last considerably longer. We recommend cleaning them regularly, allowing them to dry completely after each use, and storing them in their case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
The actual lifespan can vary depending on how frequently they are used and how well they are maintained.
Best regards,
Hi,
Thank you for your question.
Our Watersafe+ earplugs are made from soft medical-grade silicone and are designed to create a secure seal to keep water out of the ear canal. They are specifically intended for swimming, bathing and other water activities.
For the best possible fit, especially if keeping water completely out is particularly important for you, we would recommend adding our AR KI TECH online ear measurement. You simply provide photos of your ears, and the measurement helps determine the most suitable size for your ear canals.
As you’ve experienced sudden sensorineural hearing loss, however, we would recommend checking with your ENT specialist or doctor before swimming, particularly if there are any remaining concerns about your ear.
Kind regards
Hi,
Yes, absolutely! Once you have completed the AR KI Tech measurement, we can keep your sizing information on file for future orders, so you won’t need to go through the measurement process again.
When placing a future order, we recommend contacting our Customer Support team first. We’ll be happy to help you use your existing measurement and explain how to apply it to your new order.
Have a lovely day!
