At present, swimming pools are one of the best investments you can make in your home. They boost your home’s aesthetics as well as upgrade the value of your home. There are various additions you can incorporate into your pool to make swimming experiences more fun. 
One of the most common additions to your pool is the Cabo shelf. Also known as a Cabo ledge, this unique water feature provides a safe entry and exit into the pool. Also, it enhances the appealing nature of the pool. So, what exactly is a Cabo shelf or Cabo ledge?
A Cabo shelf is a large shallow area in the pool. Often, it serves as a lounging area for both adults and children. Here, parents can monitor their children who are in the pool. Additionally, a Cabo ledge allows you to soak up the sun while still immersed in the water. At times, pool owners accentuate this distinctive feature by installing pool lights around it.

How deep should a Cabo Shelf be?

We get this question a lot. The depth of a Cabo Ledge can vary based on several factors. However, when building a Cabo shelf, it should not exceed a depth of 12 inches. Nine to 12 inches is generally a good depth. Remember, this should be a shallow section of the pool where children and pets can lounge. The depth allows you to install ledge lounge chairs, among other additional water features on the Cabo Shelf.
