Freestyle Libre when swimming

What is the best cover up to use when swimming with my sensor? I had two days left and it fell off in the water?

When I went on hols to Turkey last year I used SkinTac before putting it on. Went into a Turkish Bath, diving and swimming everyday and it stuck to me like a limpet

I cover mine with a square of lint and some Opsite Flexifix from a roll. I swim train regularly for an hour at a time, so put it on as soon as I put on my new Libre and I keep it on til I change sensor. I spray Cavilon underneath as I itch without and it helps to keep it on and prevents knocking off.

Thanks, I’ll look at the pharmacy tomorrow and weigh up the best option.

I tend to find all products a lot cheaper from Amazon.
