Enjoy Pool Time with These Fun-Filled Games

Swimming pool owners love to spend hours enjoying the pool. While splashing around the pool is a great way to have fun and stay active, pool games can make the pool time more exciting. Both kids and adults alike can enjoy these games. Whether you are looking for some cool ways to add fun to the next pool party or spend quality time with close friends or family, pool games can amplify the swimming pool experience. 

Here we have compiled a list of some fun-filled games for both adults and kids for a more memorable and entertaining time in the pool:

Pearl diving

Pearl diving is a simple yet exciting game for adults and kids. There are pearl diving kits available in the market consisting of 5 white pearls and a blue pearl, or you can use any other object at home. Throw all the pearls in the water and ask the participants to dive in to find the blue pearl. The participant who gets it first will win.

Marco polo

Marco polo or pool tag is a classic pool party game, familiar to both young and old. One of the players chosen as ‘it’ is Marco. They have to close their eyes or are blindfolded and have to count to a certain number. While they count, the other players scatter around the pool. After completing the counting, the ‘it’ person moves around the pool, yelling Marco loudly, and the other players yell polo. The ‘it’ player tags other players and has to find them by only following the sound of their voices. 

Treasure hunt

The treasure hunt is one of the best evergreen pool games. Any number of players can be a part of this entertaining game. Make a list and hide a variety of items at the pool’s base. Divide the players into a team or let them go individually to look for all the objects. The one who gets back with the maximum items is the winner.  

Pool volleyball

Volleyball is that much more fun when played in the pool. Set up a volleyball net designed for swimming pool use. Divide the players into different teams. Grab a ball and pass it from one side to the other.

Belly flop contest

Belly flop is one of the best swimming pool games for adults. It is an ideal game to play with a group of friends during a pool party. In this game, players take a turn to dive into the pool with fully extended arms and legs to make the loudest and the biggest splash. Add some innovative variants to make it more challenging and exciting.

Find the bottle

Fill one or two transparent bottles with water. Use bottle caps similar to the pool tile color. Make the players stand with their back towards the pool, then throw the bottle in the swimming pool. Once the players hear the splash sound, they can dive into the water, and whoever finds it first will be declared the winner.

Pool games are the best way to spend some quality time with friends and family during the swimming season. Hire pool experts to ensure that the pool water is clean, safe, and healthy. Routine inspections and regular maintenance will keep the pool game-ready all year.
