A sun shelf (also called a tanning ledge or Baja bench) is a shallow platform built inside your pool where you can lounge in just 6 to 9 inches of water.

Sun shelves reach their full potential in a custom concrete (gunite or shotcrete) pool, where shape, size, and finish can all be tailored to your space. Here is what you need to know before adding one to yours.
