Pool toys have come a long way from the make shift salvaged toys to the bright durable toys everyone have all grown to love. The best of all the pool toys by far is the water gun. What better way to win a splash fight than with the water cannon that shoots a gallon of water into the enemies faces. The water gun also allows a person to sneak up on a relaxing sun bather and gun them down with the ice cold pool water.

Another favorite of all the pool toys is the scuba gear. Now everyone can be the monster from the dark lagoon with replica gear complete with claws, flippers, and a fin. Or the pool toys will allow a person to explore the depths of the pool with a set of goggles and a snorkel. While exploring a race can in sue to pick up as many submersible plastic items in a scavenger hunt. Not only will the scuba gear pool toys make you a faster swimmer they can increase your lung capacity in case pearl diving is in your future.

The most popular of all the the toys would be the inflatables. Huge floating rafts complete with cup holders and palm trees allow the pool goers to relax adrift after a long day of horse play. The floats are far superior to those weak foam noodles that are mainly used to smack someone with. Found in the more adult section of pool toys would be the inflatable cooler to perfectly accompany the lazy swimmer on a floating raft. There are more to rafts to be inflated the classic beach ball provides endless hours of fun. The variety of animals, dinosaurs, and objects bring a variety of options to the party. The only downfall of an inflatable raft is being flipped when you least expect it.
