This Party Floating Mat is designed to enable parties of six or less to take to the water to relax, lay back and enjoy the feeling of floating on the water.

With a design that can hold up to 500-pounds, the mat is great for multiple people to enjoy at cottages or even in urban pools. Outfitted with four drink holders, the mat can also be attached to a dock or beach thanks to the built-in mooring lines.

The tear-resistant design of the Party Floating Mat allows it to be used vigorously season after season to provide floatation in a more comfortable way. The size measures 15-feet long and 6-feet wide, which makes it a lavish way for one person or a couple to relax on the water, if desired.
