Inflatable Dock vs. Inflatable Hammock: What’s the Difference?

Both options bring a slice of floating paradise, but they serve slightly different experiences.

Inflatable Docks:

  • Stable and sturdy for multiple people or gear

  • Perfect for sunbathing, yoga, or jumping off into the lake

  • Models like the Siesta Dock 7’ and Siesta Dock XL 10’ offer ample space and solid support

Inflatable Hammocks:

How to Decide Between a Hammock and a Dock

Ask yourself what kind of experience you want:

  • For group fun and activities: Choose the Siesta Dock XL. It’s built for stability and space, making it ideal for families and friends.

  • For solo relaxation: Go with the Siesta Hammock. It’s more flexible and offers that effortless “float and chill” vibe.

  • For compact spaces or smaller groups: The Siesta Dock 7’ gives you a perfect middle ground — lightweight and portable.
