21 water-resistant board games for the beach and pool

In summer the water is the most attractive, both in the river and in the pool or on the beach. But there are moments, especially in the hottest part of the day, when it's time to relax in the shade.

But how to keep children still when they have water a few meters away? How to convince them that with 40º it is better not to play paddles or football? Here is a little great help that does work, and it will help you enjoy fun times with your family: 21 water resistant board games for the beach and pool.

Although there are many board games to choose from, we have opted for the most compact ones to carry, which occupy and weigh little.

The best options are usually card-only or dice games that are quick to play, because if the game gets longer they will leave it halfway to go to the water. And if it is also waterproof, better than better, we have the ideal board game.

A trick: to prevent the cards from being damaged by water, you can put each of them in a transparent case of its size. A pack of 100 units of 9 x 9 cm cost 2.99 euros on Amazon. But there are many different sizes.
