Pools & Water Toys

Of course! On decathlon.com.gr you will find an excellent variety of swimming pools and water toys, ideal for cooling off and having fun in your garden, backyard, or at the beach during the summer months. Choose kids' pools for little swimmers now, which are compact, easily inflated or set up, and can be carried anywhere thanks to their special waterproof bag. At the same time, for endless hours of action, you can choose amazing pool and beach toys, such as weighted underwater diving rings, Intex inflatable volleyball nets, balls with a special grip for the water, and floating targets that help children get familiar with the water through play.

The ideal portable pool for children under 3 years old is the Nabaiji Tidipool series, which you can find at Decathlon, specially designed for our little friends to get familiar with the water safely. This folding kids' pool stands out because it sets up and packs away in just a few seconds without needing an air pump for inflation, while being extremely lightweight and highly portable thanks to its clever waterproof bag. It features a low water depth for maximum safety and is made of a durable, soft material that protects the skin, making it the perfect small pool for the garden, balcony, or even the beach.

The amount of chlorine required for a portable pool to remain clean and safe depends on its water volume in liters, but the golden rule is to maintain free chlorine levels between 1.0 and 3.0 ppm. For most small family garden pools (such as inflatable or frame pools), the easiest solution is to use 20-gram mini chlorine tablets inside a special floating dispenser (buoy), calculating roughly 1 tablet per 2,000 to 3,000 liters of water per week. In any case, because the sun and frequent use reduce the effectiveness of the chemicals, it is essential to use pH and chlorine test strips at least 1-2 times a week to ensure completely hygienic pool maintenance.

For children aged 5 to 10 years, the ideal water toys are those that combine action, teamwork, and skill development in the water. At Decathlon, you will find fantastic pool and beach toys, such as Nabaiji weighted diving rings and sticks, which sink and challenge children to practice diving in the most entertaining way. Inflatable volleyball and polo sets, specialized water balls with a neoprene cover for perfect grip, and target games with water guns are also excellent choices for endless play in the garden or the sea, keeping young swimmers active, safe, and completely happy all summer long.

Proper maintenance and cleaning of a portable pool are key to keeping it completely safe for your family. The first step is daily manual cleaning, where you use a pool skimmer net to remove leaves, insects, and foreign objects from the surface. If your pool is larger, a water filter pump should run for a few hours a day to trap microparticles. At the same time, chemical balance is essential, so you must regularly check the pH (ideally between 7.2 and 7.6) and use chlorine tablets to sanitize the water. Finally, remember to cover the pool with a protective cover whenever it is not in use to block dust, and if it is a small kids' pool without a filter, make sure to change the water every 1-2 days, washing the walls with a soft sponge.

Of course there are excellent portable pools that can be set up without an air pump, saving you the hassle of inflation and the risk of a sudden puncture. At Decathlon, you will find the innovative Nabaiji Tidipool folding kids' pools, which feature a clever frame made of durable foam material that unfolds and stands upright as soon as you start filling it with water.
Meanwhile, for older ages, metal frame pools (such as Intex frame pools) are the ideal solution, as they are assembled quickly with a system of interlocking tubes, offering premium stability and large capacity. These non-inflatable pools are the most practical choice for your garden or backyard, since they set up in a few minutes, drain easily, and store away while taking up minimal space.
