I appreciate the invite to go out on the lake this weekend. How are we getting between the boats, though? I fell in last time and don’t want to repeat that again! You’re going to bring the inflatable floating dock to tie to the side? I think that will work perfectly! How much does an inflatable dock cost, anyway?
Inflatable docks range in cost from about $250 – $2,000 on average. The variance is generally attributed to a few factors. Most notably, dimensions of the dock and the weight capacity vary greatly. Other options, such as the ability to use furniture on it will add to the price as well.

No matter where you spend your day on the water, you can bring the inflatable floating dock along!
An inflatable floating dock is a portable dock that secures easily to the side of a boat or pool. It’s appropriate for use in ponds, lakes, ocean water, or pool water. It serves as a floating space for relaxing or entertaining while out on the water.
This Happybuy dock is a 6 foot x 5 foot swim platform that supports 3-5 people. A textured non-slip topper makes it easy to walk along. The thick PVC and durable cover allow you to safely add a cooler, chairs, and an umbrella. Next thing you know, you’ve got your own floating paradise! A floating dock is perfect for sunbathing, for holding your gear while snorkeling, and for keeping the drinks nearby. It makes a great companion for the fisherman and is the perfect standing platform for cleaning larger boats. The possibilities are endless with this floating helper!
Two air pumps are included – one manual and one electric. No matter where you roam, you can inflate your dock in minutes. Then, use the built-in side grab handles to move it anywhere you want. Metal D-ring anchors on the corners allow you to tether to a boat, another dock, or the side of the pool. Two central rings are included to help secure gear down, in case of bad weather.
