LOVE these swim shorts! I haven't been in the water with them yet, but I see no reason to think there will be any problems. I'm about 5ft 5in, 150, usually a size 12. I ordered large and they fit perfectly. For those with a high waist, like me, they actually sit at the waist and not the hips, creating a less attractive curve. I've never seen a swimsuit that really hugs the waist! I also love the length which drops about 4 inches above the knee. Long enough to cover my thighs but not long enough to be incredibly frumpy. I'm in my 40's and not willing to go that far unless I have to! My only minor disappointment is that the fabric is good quality (not flimsy) but there's really no compression to flatten the tummy. Out of curiosity, I'll also order them from Medium and decide which one suits me best - maybe the smaller size offers more compression. I'll leave what works best, but if you plan on ordering these, they'll fit true to size. Can't recommend these enough - just wish they had more colors. I would buy several. Now if only I could find a tankini top that fits.
