As suggested below, you may have "surfer's nipple" (you don't have to be surfing to get it). Nipples can get aggravated by a combination of the water, salt, and swimsuit material chafing the skin.
Taking a shower after helps (as you noticed) and using an oil like evening primrose oil on the affected area. Using a body oil before you head into the ocean may also help.
