Ambient Options in Floating Pool Lights

Pool lighting is essential for safe night swimming, but they also create an ambiance for outdoor entertaining. Floating pool lights are one of the easiest ways to add light and a festive dash of color to your pool's surface. These lights require no installation and come in a huge variety of styles and colors to suit any taste or budget. We have some creative options in floating pool lights that will help you turn your backyard into an outdoor party oasis for family and guests.

How do they Light?

There are a couple of different options in floating pool lights and both are easy to operate and maintain. The first is a rechargeable battery-operated light that you can turn on and off. In addition to the power switch, some of these lights offer an array of colors to choose from simply by pushing a button. Another popular option in a solar powered light that will illuminate once the sun goes down. You can leave these lights in the pool or on the deck during the day and then set them bobbing in the water once the party begins. If you choose an LED solar powered light, you will get hours of illumination with absolutely no effort on your part - perfect for the summer season!

A Rainbow of Colors

Floating lights come in a rainbow of hues, and some even offer more than one color to choose from in a single light. You may be able to select your color with the push of a button or set the light to alternate colors automatically for a festive addition to your pool. You can also choose lights that point their shine above the pool's surface and others that point the direction of the light down into the pool. This can offer a fun disco effect for your swimmers, as they splash through the various colors of illumination.

Shapes Galore

Many floating lights come in simple disc shapes that can look particularly attractive when grouped in a number of different colors. You can also find lantern shapes that bob along in the water for a party atmosphere. For a whimsical touch, check out the floating lights shaped like flower that come in many different colors and sizes. You can "plant" an entire garden across your swimming pool. This is an excellent choice if you are planning a backyard bridal shower or wedding reception, because you can choose light colors to match with the colors of the wedding.

Tropical parties work well with a few flower floating lights in bright, tropical shades. For more fun, check out the floating lights shaped like jellyfish.
