What is a Buoyancy Aid?

A buoyancy aid is a type of personal flotation device (PFD) that helps you stay afloat during watersports and recreational boating. Unlike life jackets, buoyancy aids offer lower buoyancy as they use foam rather than gas to provide buoyancy. The benefit of this is that every time you go in the water, you do not have to replace the cartridge. Buoyancy aids also typically offer more mobility and freedom of movement, in comparison with life jackets.

Adult Buoyancy Aids

Our selection of adult buoyancy aids is perfect for activities like kayaking, dinghy sailing, windsurfing, and SUP. Designed with comfort and flexibility in mind, many models include adjustable shoulder and waist straps, mesh drainage panels, zipped pockets, and ergonomic foam construction for a snug, secure fit.

Kids Buoyancy Aids

Safety is especially important for younger water lovers, and our kids buoyancy aids provide excellent flotation support for children learning to enjoy the water. These aids come in bright, visible colours and often include crotch straps and grab handles for added safety. They're ideal for supervised activities and beginner-friendly environments.
