Nothing says summer like that first time you can lay poolside and feel your skin warmed by the sun. After a chilly winter and soggy spring, it’s the perfect way to kick off the season. Unfortunately, that perfect feeling might fade a bit as you begin to sweat and overheat in the toasty sun. You may call sunbathing quits for the day, or you might hop in the pool to cool down and try again. What if you could keep cool while enjoying the tanning experience? With a tanning ledge incorporated into your new backyard pool, you will be able to have more fun soaking in the sun.

Our incredible fiberglass pool manufacturer, Latham, offers tanning ledges incorporated into the durable fiberglass pools that we build. The ledges are typically six to twelve inches in depth and increase the way your pool can be utilized. They will give you a resort-like experience in your backyard and enhance your pool area with visual interest. Depending on your style, you can have a more modern, squared-off tanning ledge or you can have a more traditional, softer semi-circle ledge.
Maximize Your Tanning Ledge
An ideal way to make use of your new tanning ledge is to outfit it with a couple of lounge chairs. Water-resistant, chaise-style lounge chairs are the perfect way to get some sun while staying cool. If you would rather not get as wet but want to still cool down a bit, you can place a water-resistant chair in the shallow water and still cool your feet down. Add an umbrella for extra sun protection if it’s an especially hot day.
A Tanning Ledge Offers Versatility for the Young and the Young at Heart
Get creative with the way you use your tanning ledge. It’s amazing for little ones to wade around in while under your supervision. They can explore the water and get more comfortable in it. It’s a safe environment where they can sit, stand and splash around with a few toys. Try giving them some plastic cups or measuring cups for endless entertainment and play. The shallow tanning ledge is also a great spot for tired moms and dads to relax in comfort while they supervise older children swimming in the rest of the pool.
Shallow tanning ledges are also great for those who aren’t comfortable getting completely in the water anymore, but who don’t want to miss out on all the fun. They could either sit on the edge of the pool with the shallow support of the pool bottom underneath their feet, or they could sit in a chair on the ledge.
