The Best Floating Pool Lights on Amazon

If you’ve got a backyard that's big enough for one, few things will add to your home like a pool. But a pool by itself isn't always enough, especially if it's surrounded by substandard lighting. You’ll need to spruce up the space—and few options are as effective as a good set of floating pool lights.

Few products are more descriptively named than floating pool lights. That's because that's exactly what they are: LED lights that float in a pool. Of course, it's not quite as simple as that, and when it comes to picking out a set, you’ll want to consider aspects like size, shape and design. And if you’re looking to light up your pool guiltlessly, you might also want to search out a set that has its own solar panels.

If you’re looking to add some flair to your pool area, or need to upgrade an old set, then the time is right to invest in a set of floating pool lights. Here are four of the best currently available on Amazon.

Orchestrating the ambiance for your evening soirée becomes much easier with Loftek's pool lights. This set is comprised of eight glowing balls that can switch between a staggering 16 colors. Not only that, each 12-inch ball is dimmable via a remote and has four lighting modes, including fade, smooth, flash and strobe. This means you can create the right vibe in any situation, from a lively party to a chill dinner. The waterproof spheres are made of high-quality polyethylene and feature a bright LED. Each light also packs a rechargeable lithium battery that will allow it to shine bright for up to 12 hours per charge. That should be more than enough to cover your late-night shenanigans.

As far as pool lights go, Geediar's are far from the best looking, especially since they resemble neon-colored lifesavers when viewed from a distance. But they make up for this in their range of color options. Each light has 16 color settings to choose from, a spectrum unmatched by any of the other entries on this list. One thing to note: While they can be used on land, you’ll probably want to keep them in the pool.

Why buy a set of lights when one can do all the lighting for you? Spin Master's light is unique in that it functions as something of an underwater disco ball. Turn it on, plop it in your pool and it will project a spinning array of colorful fish silhouettes on the sides of your pool. It's definitely different, but hey, that just might work for you. One slight quibble, though, is that the light requires four AA batteries to work, so prepare to go through a couple of packs in the summer.

If you want to add some lighting to your pool for a barbecue or party, there's few better places to start than Esuper's set. Each of the four light-up globes—as the brand calls them—measures 14 inches around and projects four different colors. If you can't decide on a color though, fret not, because you can cycle through the colors and different time intervals. Just remember that you might have to buy multiple sets depending on how big your pool is.
