Attending a pool party can be so exciting, especially when the temperature is just right for the fun and the sun is shining. But, before taking the plunge, you have to have the best accessories with you for an unforgettable experience. These top ten accessories should make your next pool adventure a blast:

Pool Toys

Your pool experience won’t be complete without cool pool toys for you to enjoy. For that flawless summer selfie, get a stylish inflatable unicorn, flamingo, or swan float. Beach balls and foam noodles are also good options.

2. Sunblock

Feeling the warm summer sun directly on your face is always nice, but it can also cause skin damage. That’s why bringing sunblock is definitely a good idea. While you have fun in the pool, good sunscreen will protect you from uncomfortable sunburns. Of course, women’s and men’s swim shirt also offers great help. A sunblock provides your skin coverage and the needed protection against the rays of the sun so you can enjoy the water for a longer period.

3. Wireless Speakers And A Playlist

A day in the pool without a playlist is boring. Bring wireless speakers to amp up the entertainment. Note that there are also floating, waterproof models that will allow you to take your favorite tunes into the pool.

Choose louder speaker models so you can hear the music whether you’re going for a swim, playing games, or grabbing food. It’s a good idea to select the songs in advance before going to the pool so you won’t have to change tracks from time to time.

4. All Kinds Of Towels

Make sure you have all kinds of towels for you and you guests (if you’re hosting a pool party)

It can be extremely inviting having an extra-large beach towel spread out on the pool’s edge for a cooling toe dip, or on the grass for comfort. It’s one great way to get you and your friends together for some good old-fashioned chit-chat.

For maximum comfort, you can even layer your towels up. If you’re lying down on a lounge chair, you might want to use towel clips for you to get the towels laying just right. You’ll have more time to relax because it’ll mean less fidgeting in your chair.

5. Umbrellas

In the summer or the late spring, most parties in the pool take place on sunny, hot days. Even though celebrating that seasonal warmth is nice, especially after a wet spring or long winter, you may want to escape the rays of the sun from time to time. To provide just the perfect touch of shade, you need a sizeable and solid patio umbrella.

6. Lounge Chairs

Lounge chairs are where you could recline and soak up some sun. Invest in a few comfortable loungers if you don’t have one yet. They’re must-haves when throwing a pool party. There are tons of looks and unique styles to choose from, so you’ll surely find the right chairs to match the pool area’s look and feel.

7. Coolers

Having fun in the pool under the hot summertime sun requires ice-cold beverages in your hand from time to time. That’s why it’s essential to have a cooler to keep your drinks icy cold. Here are tips to ponder upon:

Always have more ice than how much you think you’ll need.
Make sure that ice doesn’t melt faster by keeping the cooler in the shade.
Coolers aren’t only for drinks. On a hot day, eating chilled snacks, veggies, and fruits after taking a good dip in the pool is also beyond satisfying.
Some coolers are able to float in the water; they’re the ones you’d want to buy and bring if you like grabbing a drink without the need to get out of the water.
Bring at least two coolers—one for water and soda, and one for adult beverages. Other drinks, like juice, can also be added to soda and water, especially when kids are joining the party. Just forget about energy drinks.

8. Insulated Cups

Play or lounge all day with icy cold drinks for hours. Insulated koozies, tumblers, bottles, or cups can help in ensuring that your drinks stay chill for a longer period. They also come in different colors and prints, so make sure to match your vibe when choosing one.

9. Backyard Grill

Pool parties and grilled foods go hand in hand. After that long afternoon of poolside play and swimming, you and your family will surely love a fresh hotdog or burger. For dessert, nothing beats roasting marshmallows after mealtime over a fire table.

Final Thoughts

While there are many ways to make a day at the pool great, bringing the must-have pool accessories mentioned and discussed above can really make a difference. From pool toys to poolside drink makers, you can’t go wrong having them within arm’s reach for you, as well as your family and guests.
