Speakers used to be precious things, coddled in homes and attached to tangled wires. Removing them from the nearest outlet was a stretch, let alone getting them anywhere near water. But now, with the technology of Bluetooth and the help of waterproof materials, fragile, stationary speakers are a thing of the past–and pool parties and campsite aren’t complete without the right music.

While it’s easy to focus on how your favorite tunes will sound while you’re outside, a good pair of poolside speakers isn’t solely about the sound—especially if they’re in the splash zone. When you’re shopping for waterproof Bluetooth speakers, one thing to keep in mind is the IP rating, which indicates the level of water and dust it can withstand. Waterproof speakers with ratings like IPX7 and IP67 will handle being submerged in water up to 1 meter for about 30 minutes. Others with ratings like IPX4 will only be able to get through splashes.

There’s no doubt you’ve heard of Bose—whether it’s for their best-selling, high-quality wireless headphones or their top-rated speaker systems. Well, it should come as no surprise that the brand makes smaller, portable speakers that are just as good as the rest of its lineup. Water-resistant with a rating of IPX7 and a soft-but-tough exterior, this small Bluetooth speaker is perfect for throwing into your bag of camping essentials or just keeping on the side table while you fire up the grill.

It’s compact, which makes it perfect for any outdoor getaways—and is waterproof and dustproof with an IP67 rating.

At $79, Anker’s best-selling speaker (which can withstand full submersion in water) is the best under-$100 waterproof Bluetooth speaker we found. It features a design that provides a full, 360-degree sound. Plus, it certainly doesn’t hurt that it comes with its own light show. In other words, this is an essential option for anyone who plans to live it up and around some water this season.

Best Portable Waterproof Speaker

Beosound A1 2nd Gen Speaker

  • Size and weight: 5.5 x 3.15 x 1.1 inches, 1.23 lbs
  • Battery life: 18 hour

Best Waterproof Speaker with Heavy Bass

  • Battery life: 15 hours
  • Rating: IP67
  • Voice controls: No

This beast belts out crystalline vocals and a gut-punch of bass. In other words, it’s not for the faint of heart. Setup takes a grand total of four minutes, and the unit can play after a 30-minute downpour without fritzing. It’s heavy enough to do bicep curls with, but it also comes with its own carrying strap (and a bottle opener). It’s certainly not the cheapest option on this list, but if you’re looking to invest in something, this may the one for you.
