A sun shelf—also known as a tanning ledge or Baja shelf—is the perfect addition to any custom pool, offering a shallow, stylish area for lounging, wading, or letting little ones play safely. At Bluewave Outdoors, we design and build custom sun shelves that seamlessly blend with your pool’s architecture, adding beauty, function, and resort-style comfort to your backyard oasis.
