The float that we’ve chosen for our Bikini review is possibly the cutest float on the planet. This happy little crab is perfect for kids, but adults have been known to splash around in crabby style as well. The Bikini float measures two feet across, so little arms can easily stretch. The design also features a split in the middle to allow for easy entry and exit. The Crabby Kiddy Float from Bikini is made from 100% recyclable PVC, one of the less oil-dependent plastics. Even if you have a kid who likes to play a little more roughly with your Crabby Float, the product includes an extra repair patch in case of accidental punctures.
Bikini is a great place to shop if you do have kids. The Bikini catalog includes hundreds of affordable, stylish options from swimsuits to beach accessories.

Do you love pina coladas? Okay, maybe this isn’t what Rupert Holmes had in mind when he wrote the Pina Colada Song, but it certainly fits! This cute float is in the shape of a giant pineapple being a touch of the tropics to your pool or vacation spot. Our Delifur review features a recyclable float that’s comfy for kids and big enough for the adults. Measuring a full 76 inches long, even taller adults can relax and float to their heart’s content. Toddles can even double up with a partner on the float while an adult friend pulls them around on a tour of the pool.
Customers who have bought the Pineapple Pool Float by Delifur say the PVC material is durable, but the product does include a patch for repairs if you find it necessary. The float is also very easy to clean. Just wipe down with dish soap and water, and allow to dry in the sun.

If you’re looking for something that’s going to make a statement, this Hill & Amber review might just be the thing. This four foot tall Hill & Amber palm tree float is made of super-sturdy vinyl, the same material that rafts are made from. Customers who have purchased it say the palm tree float lasts years, and it’s durable enough for kids who get excited at the pool! The palm tree float comes with a ball, too. You can use this pool accessory to float or to swim, or you can use it as a goal to play water basketball. The possibilities are almost endless. Vinyl can be melted down and repurposed, so it’s an eco-friendly option for summer fun.
We love that this pool float inflates and deflates so quickly. To be precise, the raft inflates in around two minutes. That means you can store it compactly and simply inflate it in a hurry when you’re ready to recline or play.

This kids’ float seats babies up to 44 pounds and features a canopy that blocks the sun from your little one’s head. That means you’ll no longer have to worry about keeping track of those little hats while baby is splashing around – simply let him chill in the pool in his own protective float.

Parents who have bought this Punada float say it’s super-durable and they love the details, even down to the little pint-sized steering wheel.

Peradix is a company that sells primarily through major retailers across the US. Be sure to stock up on all your essentials when you order this pool float – combining orders will reduce the carbon footprint of your shopping experience. For our Peradix review, we’ve selected this adorable little whale pool float. The Canopy Pool Float can hold kids up to around 35 pounds, and comes with some great accessories. First, you’ll receive what the company calls a sun hat, though shoppers agree it’s more of a visor to shield baby’s eyes from the sun. You’ll also receive some sweet little sand toys – most orders will include a fish, a crab and a starfish mold. Kids love “steering” this whale via the attached steering wheel.
The pool float is made from very heavy duty PVC which, of course, is both recyclable and durable. Shoppers say the valves used to inflate and deflate the toy are all but error-proof: you don’t have to worry about them opening when you don’t expect it.

Your baby is going to love paddling around like a flamingo in the Flamingo Canopy Float we’ve chosen for our Weefloat review. As with many other products in this list, the float is made from recyclable PVC. The feature we love most, however, is the canopy. The canopy on this cute little bird is adjustable. Tilt it back or forward to adjust to the position of the sun. Alternatively, you can remove the canopy altogether.
This Weefloat toy is green and recyclable and is recommended for children from sitting age to around two years old. You can use it indoors or outdoors, and parents with garden tubs say they’ve even let their little ones float around in the bathtub! The product is lightweight and, while it’s best to use an air pump to inflate it, it does deflate quickly, making it ideal to pack for your next vacation. Simply roll it up and stash it in your bag for fun on the go.

The Jellydog pool float is a great option for travel, as its dimensions are small enough so as to be very portable. With that said, the float can support little ones up to 45 pounds – usually up to around 3 years old. For added fun, this little duckie will talk to your child. Simply pinch its little duckbill and it will squawk! Your kids will be in puddles of laughter. The Rubber Duckie Children’s Float has a low center of gravity, so your little one will be unlikely to tip over. Of course, as with any pool toy, caregivers should always remain within arm’s reach.

That having been said, the tube is excellent for travel. It weighs only a few ounces, so you can pack a few – one for each child. Use caution on the beach, as the tubes are easily caught in the wind!

There’s a saying that says: Be a pineapple – stand tall, wear a crown and be sweet on the inside. You, too, can be a pineapple when you shop from this HANMUN review. This pineapple pool float is sweet and sassy, but even better yet, it’s extremely comfortable. In fact, the size and buoyancy of this float by HANMUN makes it one of the most comfortable we’ve found so far. The pineapple pool float is recommended for kids age 6 and up, and adults are supported by the product as well. We love that this pineapple is so attention-grabbing. That means you’re easily able to spot your children in a crowd.
This pool toy is a little heavier than others on our list of the top eco-friendly pool accessories, so it’s best used at home or for local travel. While the weight limit isn’t specifically addressed by HANMUN, customers say that two adults can comfortable share the pineapple without sinking!
