Summer is already around the corner, meaning it’s time to get out of the house and enjoy the warm weather. It’s time to get out in the sun, splash around in your backyard swimming pool, and enjoy yourself.
For sure, you have a lot of questions in your mind. What if you’re tired of doing the same old things at the pool? What if you like to try something new but don’t know where to start?
Here are some unique ways you can enjoy your backyard swimming pool this summer:
- Have A Movie Night By The Pool
If you have a swimming pool in your backyard, it’s time to have a movie night by the pool. You’ll have fun and enjoy the great outdoors and your swimming pool.
Set up some lounge chairs at the edge of the pool so that you can sit back and enjoy your movie. You can even place some very cool pool lounger. If possible, get some pillows so that you can lie down comfortably while watching your favorite film.
Make sure there’s enough lighting around so that everyone can clearly see what they’re doing. Decorate with lights and lanterns so that it looks more festive and inviting as well as cozy for those who want to sit around and relax while watching their favorite movie on this special occasion.
- Have A Water Balloon Fight
Summer is an excellent time to enjoy your backyard swimming pool: the kids are out of school, you’re on vacation, and its hot outside. A water balloon fight is a fantastic way to get everyone involved in the fun.
Here are some things you need to remember when planning a balloon fight. First, have plenty of water balloons. Don’t expect everyone to bring their balloons, but if you’ve got enough people, it’s great if everyone does bring their own. Make sure you have enough for everybody’s enjoyment.
Next, craft a plan for where the balloons will go after they’re dropped or thrown. You don’t want them landing on your lawn or driveway and staying there until they dry out. Lastly, set up a target area where everyone can throw their balloons at each other without getting hit too often by their own team’s balloons.
- Host A Poolside Barbecue
If you’re looking for a fun way to enjoy your backyard swimming pool this summer, consider hosting a poolside barbecue. With the right equipment, food and beverages, you can turn your backyard pool ready for the summer and party-ready in no time.
The great thing about hosting a poolside barbecue is that it gives you more time to spend with family and friends while still enjoying your backyard swimming pool. Hosting a poolside barbecue also makes it easy for guests to enjoy the convenience of being able to swim anytime without having to travel long distances from one location to another.
You can also set up a bar by the pool with all of the fixings for cocktails and mocktails using ice buckets filled with ice cubes and garnishes like lemon slices or cherries on top of each glass. Make sure that your guests have something to eat and drink and plenty of music playing in the background so people can relax and enjoy themselves without worrying about anything else but having fun.
- Play Pool Volleyball
Pool volleyball is a terrific way to enjoy your summer backyard swimming pool. It’s also a great way to get in shape, as well as play with friends and family safely during trying times. There are several ways to play pool volleyball, but one of the most popular is extended doubles. This means that you’ll have four people on each side instead of two, and it will be played like traditional doubles.
The game starts with both teams on opposing sides of the net. One player from each side serves the ball over the net into their opponents’ side of the court. The other team then tries to hit the ball back up across into their side of the court. If they’re successful, they score a point and get to serve again.
If they miss or don’t hit it high enough for an opponent to return, the opposing team gets credit for an ace or point.
- Install A Water Slide
A water slide is one of the most exciting features you can add to your backyard pool. A slide makes swimming more fun and provides an excellent way for kids to play and exercise. Placing a poolside slide is relatively easy, and there are several options to choose from.
Water slides come in all shapes and sizes, but most feature a straight or curved slide that goes from the pool deck into the water. They’re typically made from vinyl or plastic and come with wood or fiberglass frames. Some slides also have an attached diving board on top of them for even more fun. Here’s a short list of reasons why you should install a water slide:
- Water slides are fun. Your kids will love them, and adults will enjoy watching their kids have fun with them.
- Water slides are great exercise, so both children and adults will stay active all summer long.
- Water slides add value to your swimming pool, making it more attractive to potential buyers if you want to resell the home someday.
- Do Yoga By The Pool
Summer is a fabulous time to go outside and enjoy the sunshine. But it can also be hard on your body, especially if you’re not used to being under the sun for long periods of time.
One of the best ways to relieve stress and relax during your summer break is by doing yoga by the pool. It’s a great way to take care of yourself and helps you feel more energized and relaxed throughout the day.
If you’re going to do yoga by the pool, then you must have a set time that works best for your schedule. You don’t want to rush through your practice because you have somewhere else to be or something that needs doing. Instead, pick a time when you can give yourself enough time so that nothing interrupts or gets in the way of your practice.
