Summertime swimming sessions usually bring a few drinks along with them and the New Wave Floating Bar will let you serve guests without having to get out of the water. Featuring a multitude of different sections to place [drinks, snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garden-veggie-splash-pack) or whatever else, the New Wave Floating Bar makes lounging in the pool that much more carefree.

Although the New Wave Floating Bar might be more for keeping libations on-hand, it can be used for anything from soda to chips, so everything is kept close by without the need for breakable glass containers. Friends and family can take turns [playing the bartender](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bartifier-cocktail-maker) or leave the New Wave Floating Bar to do it's thing while you fit in a few laps.
