Summer is in full swing, but it doesn’t feel like summer till you’ve been to at least one pool party. It doesn’t get any better than floating all day with your friends, dipping your toes in the water, and having a tropical drink poolside. For all the fun that'll inevitably go down, you'll need some pool puns for Instagram captions, because you want to be clever AF.

There are tons of Insta-worthy moments that happen by the pool. First off, you need a swimsuit and sunglasses selfie before you jump in. You could even record yourself dancing with your friends while streaming the top hits of the summer. Of course, it wouldn’t be a pool party without at least a few pool float pics. And don’t forget the candid shots of everyone just chilling and playing in the water. You’ll not only end the day with a nice tan, but some snaps you’ll want to share to your feed.

When it comes to Instagram captions, there's no denying that when the puns start flowing, you can't help but laugh. Having some swimming puns paired with your pool party pics will definitely have people LOL-ing as they scroll through their feed. The hard part is coming up with your own pool puns. Luckily, you can always use these 60 pool captions. Sure, they may be a little cheesy, but it's whatever floats your boat. You're just taking advantage of that summer sea-sun, so water you wading for? Get to posting, stat.
