Vanishing Edge and Beach Entry Pools

By: Berni Wideman

Building your custom swimming pool, it is important to consider what sorts of options you want to have. Two of the most popular trends is the vanishing edge and beach entry pools. Both come with their own set of benefits which makes them stand out from your run of the pool. Let’s have a look at the features:

Vanishing Edge Pools: Extravagant and Tranquil

Often the type of pools are referred to as an “infinity pool” or a “negative edge” pool. This style of pool gets its name from its unique “overflow” design as the water flows right on over the edge, giving the impression of the waters of the pool extending out for miles. Depending on where the pool is located, swimmers are treated to the sense that the pool is part of the ocean or sea or that they may be on the verge of toppling over a large waterfall (i.e. if the pool is located on an upper level of a high rise building).

These pools are attractive to almost any surroundings and they’re also functional. Vanishing edge pools can be used for exercise, for recreational purposes, and are suitable for all ages. Families with small children can enjoy them because a wading area can be created just for them.

Beach Entry or Tanning Deck Pools: Casual and Easy

This type of pool is also referred to as a “zero depth entry pool. They are an ideal choice for anyone with kids, disabled persons or seniors who may struggle with navigating stairs into and out of a pool. The shallow entry creates a “wading” or lounging area that is suitable for those of any age.

Beach entry pools not only offer a safer way to get into the pool, but they can be amazingly attractive. The sloped entry is far more safer than stairs or a ladder, and they complement the natural beauty of your backyard or patio area.
