Watching the sunset at the beach or lakeside is one of life's simple joys. Perhaps one of the only things that could make it better would be listening to some great music. Pop on some ambient jazz or this summer's playlist and take the experience to a whole new level.

However, there's one non-negotiable when it comes to tunes by a body of water: your portable Bluetooth speaker needs to be waterproof. Sure, we all tell ourselves we'll keep the speaker far away from the water source, but stuff happens. It's better to play it safe and opt for a waterproof speaker for the beach, the lake, or the pool.

Some of our favorite models are on sale as we count down the final days of summer, so if you have some water-side hangs planned, here are some great deals to shop today.

Why we like it

Getting up to 12 hours of playtime before it needs a recharge, the JBL Flip 6 is a great option if you're shopping for a portable Bluetooth speaker that's worthy of taking along to the beach or the pool. Thanks to today's sale price at Amazon, you can score late-summer savings and get the speaker for just $99.95 instead of the usual price of $129.95. That's a 23% discount. Plus, this deal extends to all colorway options of the JBL Flip 6, including pink, teal, red, and camo.

In Mashable's review of the best outdoor speakers, the JBL Flip 6 earned the spot of the best Bluetooth party speaker. "In our testing, the JBL Flip 6 delivered strong bass and better overall sound compared to more expensive outdoor Bluetooth speakers from Sonos and Bose," according to the review.

The Flip 6 comes with IP67 waterproof and dustproof reassurance, so it'll be no problem to carry this portable party to any gathering. It also weights under two pounds, so it doesn't add much when tossing it in your tote bag or backpack.
