InflatableIsland.co has delivered a first-of-its-kind floating pickleball court to the SoLé Mia luxury lagoon community in North Miami, Florida. This venture effectively creates a water-based version of America’s fastest-growing sport and as such, it is sure to capture the attention of resorts and other experience-forward businesses.
The groundbreaking floating pickleball court combines regulation dimensions with a stable, paddleboard-like playing surface. This custom-built installation measures 66 feet by 33 feet. It features official court markings for baselines, service boxes, and the non-volley zone. InflatableIsland.co has anchored its court securely to the lagoon using a purpose-built system.
The first-of-its-kind floating pickleball court can inflate in roughly an hour to 90 minutes. The product was fabricated from commercial-grade PVC. Brands that are interested in installing InflatableIsland.co's innovation also have the option to customize colors, logos, and branding at no additional cost.
