🛶 Boater Gift #4: AWSUM Inflatable Floating Dock

Our Favorite Floating Island for Easy On-and-Off Fun

If you love anchoring out and relaxing on the water as much as we do, this floating dock is a game changer. We bought the AWSUM Inflatable Floating Dock last year in the 10 ft x 6 ft, Mint version — and it’s been one of our favorite additions to No Plans.

After trying a traditional foam mat, then a competitors swim pad, we wanted something easier to climb onto and more stable. This inflatable dock checked every box. It feels sturdy underfoot, doesn’t flex or roll, and the non-slip surface makes it safe for kids, pets, and friends jumping off for a swim.

Setup is quick with the included pump, (although we now use an electric one) and once inflated, it stays firm all day. When it’s time to head in, it deflates compactly and stows easily — no wrestling a bulky mat back onto the boat.

Whether you’re using it as a swim platform, a place to lounge, or a floating “dockside” gathering spot, it’s a perfect upgrade for anyone who loves spending time on the water.

💙 Why We Recommend It

Stable and easy to board — no more awkward flops getting back on the mat!
Durable, non-slip surface feels secure even when wet.
Folds and stores easily on board.
Great for swimming, lounging, or tying up with friends’ boats.
