The Aqualung Long Sleeve Galaxy is clearly aimed at scuba divers and snorkelers more than swimmers, surfers or as simple beach wear.
Of course, we also read other opinions online but in the end, nothing beats real world experience. So we took the time for a thorough Aqualung Galaxy Long Sleeve Rash Guard test and review! Below you find everything you need to know, including features, specs and what we like, and don't like about it.

First Impression
In a hurry and looking for the gist of things? Here is our review in short. Keep reading for the entire version.
Aqualung makes some really good diving and swimwear and the Aqualung Galaxy Long Sleeve Rash Guard is no exception.
It comes in both a men’s and women ‘s version and both are great. I especially like the galaxy-inspired design (surprise surprise, I’m a Star Wars fan) and the formfitting cut.
I usually wear mine (I got 2) underneath a thicker wetsuit while diving or when swimming medium distances in warm seawater.
