ABOUT

OMI meaning Water in Yoruba, a symbol of flow, intuition and resilience has always captivated OMI's creator.

Truly of the Sea and as free as can be, Omi's creator Benita is a Caribbean yacht captain, chef, entrepreneur, and founder of Omi Movement.

Inspired by a life spent at sea, she created Omi to bridge the gap between swimwear and movement wear, designing pieces for those who live actively between water and land. She draws inspiration from her tropical surrounding and cherishes her deep African Caribbean roots.

Through Omi, she hopes to inspire a lifestyle rooted in movement, exploration, and connection to the ocean.

“The ocean has taught me some of life’s greatest lessons — how to move with strength, adapt with grace, and trust the journey ahead. Omi was created to share that spirit with others. 𖦹 ASE"
