Relax, Lounge, and Play on a Custom Sun Shelf

Whether you’re tanning, watching the kids, or just staying cool, sun shelves bring comfort and function to your custom pool.

A Shallow Space With Big Benefits

Also known as a tanning ledge or Baja shelf, a sun shelf is a flat, shallow area at the entrance of your pool. This is typically 6–12 inches deep. It’s the perfect spot to relax in the water without fully swimming.

  • Safe play area for small children
  • Great for in-pool loungers or chairs
  • Can include umbrella sleeves or bubbler jets
  • Optional textured surfaces for added comfort
