Abstract: An earplug for water sports has a wing adapted for fixation of the ear plug in the outer ear of the user, and has a tube of a funnelled and tapered configuration forming an audio channel extending within the ear canal. The wing is arranged in an angled position in relation to the tube for adaption to the anatomy of the ear, and has a flexible portion for adaption to the outer ear. A hollow tip element with flanges for sealing the ear canal and for fixating the ear plug in the ear canal surrounds a narrow portion of the tube. The tip element has a nose end with recessed areas for forming a free air canal. The ear plug has a mesh with an open area structure for air permeability that allows sound to pass the mesh and through the audio channel, while preventing water and wind from entering the ear canal.
