The Best Waterproof Sex Toys, According to Sexperts
One of the best features about a sex toy is when it offers versatility. And let's be honest, there's no better versatility than a sex toy that can go from the bedroom to the shower with ease. Waterproof sex toys are elite for this very reason. But unfortunately, not all sex toys are waterproof.
To find out whether or not your sex toy is, all you have to do is look at the box or the sex-toy description on the website. But Charlotte Johnson, a sex expert at Mega Pleasure, notes that there's a difference between a sex toy being fully waterproof and a sex toy that can withstand a few splashes of water. "Waterproof toys can be fully submerged in water without any damage, while water-resistant toys can withstand some exposure to water but may not be fully submersible," Johnson says.
For this reason, when it comes to submersible toys, you want to be wary of the depth that the toy can handle. Some toys clearly say on their packaging that they can only be submerged up to a few inches, while others do not have a limit, making them great for bathtub or pool play.
Another thing to note is while you may have found a waterproof sex toy, you shouldn't use it in oceans or lakes. "Waterproof sex toys should not be used in saltwater like the ocean as it will cause harm to any metal on the exterior of the sex toys," says clinical psychologist Lisa Lawless, PhD, CEO of Holistic Wisdom. "Fresh lakes and rivers may not cause damage to the sex toy but may introduce harmful bacteria into the urethra during sexual play, which can cause a urinary tract infection (UTI)."
And lastly, as much as sex-toy use in the water can enhance your sexual experience, waterproof sex toys aren't always the best functioning. "Consider the desired functionality of the toy," Johnson says. "Make sure the waterproof feature doesn't compromise the toy's intended purpose or performance. Some toys may have limited vibration strength [in the water]." In other words, just because it's waterproof doesn't mean it's going to deliver the same ecstasy as it does when you're using it on dry land.
That said, if you're thinking you want to get in on this waterproof sex-toy action, here are the best waterproof sex toys, according to sex experts.

The Best Thrusting Waterproof Sex Toy
Fun Factory's Stronic Real ($170)
This waterproof sex toy has a very unique pulsating motor and shape that closely mimics the feeling of having intercourse — and actually, it thrusts in more than 60 different ways. "It mimics the feeling of sexual intercourse rather than just vibrating, making it a unique addition to any toy collection," certified sex therapist Melissa Cook says. "It's waterproof, rechargeable, and made from body-safe silicone."
The Best Waterproof G-Spot Vibrator
Je Joue Uma G-Spot Vibrator ($99)
This waterproof sex toy will open you up to the wonders of stand-alone G-spot vibrators. It's sleek and very satisfying — even if you can't come from insertion alone. And, as with all these toys, it's fully waterproof.
The Best Waterproof Vibrating Egg
Silicone Vibrating Egg ($27)
"This powerful vibrating egg features a deep indentation to provide a satisfying edge meant to enhance the strong buzzing from this silky-smooth delight," Johnson says. "This waterproof design also makes this egg shower-friendly and easy to clean with warm water and sex-toy cleaner."
The Best Waterproof Kegel Set
Je Joue Ami 3 Step Kegel Set ($69)
While using any of these waterproof sex toys will help keep your Kegel muscles strong, this set is actually filled with little weights. They don't vibrate, but they are great fun if you feel like taking your vagina to the gym and doing some reps. Don't be surprised if you get turned on and multitask by lifting them as you use another toy on your clitoris.
The Best Waterproof Oral Sex Toy
Satisfyer Pro 2 ($70)
"What I love about this toy is its rechargeable ability, it's silky-smooth design, and its whisper-soft sound," certified sexologist and pleasure coach Tyomi says. "It can be submerged in the tub or used in the shower and has a pulsating action and vibrating head that's located inside of the insertion point that provides three forms of stimulation simultaneously. With seven different pulsating patterns, the Satisfyer Pro 2 doesn't miss."
The Best Vibrating Waterproof Sex Toy
Fun Factory Stronic G ($170)
This waterproof sex toy is perfect for the G-spot enthusiast who wants to rock the boat (or their clitoris). It works completely hands-free and allows for fuller, deeper orgasms.
The Best Waterproof Sex Toy For Couples
The Lily 2 ($119)
The Lily 2 has been a go-to sex toy for those who love clitoral stimulation during partnered sex. Strong but not too loud, it fits easily in your hand in a variety of sex positions and is also completely powerful on its own.
The Best Waterproof Anal Sex Toy
Fun Factory Bootie Small ($35)
While it isn't a vibrator, this waterproof sex toy is an excellent intro to anal play. And though lube is very important for anal (you can't generate lubrication on your own there, no matter how turned on), you could always start off in the shower and move to playing in the bedroom.
The Best Waterproof Clit Sucker
Lelo Sona Cruise ($150)
Not only does it have eight intensity modes, but this waterproof sex toy is great for simulating a sensation similar to cunnilingus. "Instead of using traditional vibrations, this innovative device employs sonic waves and pulses to stimulate the entire clitoris," Cook says. "The Lelo Sona 2 is a complete game changer and, of course, it's waterproof."
The Best Waterproof BDSM Sex Toy
Adjustable Nipple Clamps and Clit Clamp ($23)
Waterproof sex toys don't have to be limited to just vibrators and dildos. Certified sex educator Megan Stubbs, author of "Playing Without a Partner," suggests these adjustable nipple clamps and clit clamp. "It's waterproof and can be used hands free if otherwise occupied. Plus, increasing blood flow makes the nipples and clit more sensitive, so you can really be wild."
The Best Waterproof Rabbit Vibrator
Playboy Pleasure Rapid Rabbit Triple Stimulating Massager ($150)
"If you're into A-spot play, this waterproof and submersible thrusting rabbit is going to be your best friend," says certified sexologist Marla Renee Stewart, sexpert for sexual wellness brand Lovers. "It has three thrusting speeds to help you perfect your orgasmic crescendo, and not only does it hit the A-spot, but the first-of-its-kind and unique flapper shaft also hits the G-spot, with its 10 different speeds and rhythms. For even more stimulation, the external stimulator stimulates the clitoris externally with seven powerful, sensational speeds."
The Best Waterproof Long-Distance Sex Toy
We-Vibe Sync 2 ($159)
According to Lawless, the We-Vibe Sync 2 is "perfect" for solo use or with your partner. For those of you navigating LDRs, this sex toy may be the one for you since "it is controlled by a Bluetooth app that allows one to control it easily in person or long distance for couples in different locations."
If not, Lawless also notes that this waterproof sex toy "can be used during intercourse to stimulate the clitoris and G-spot. It will make a penis feel larger during sex while providing [the penis owner] with stimulation as well. It is submersible, so it is easy to clean as well as be used in water, such as in the bath and shower."
The Best Waterproof Sex Toy For Clitoral Stimulation
Womanizer Premium 2 ($199)
Whether you're looking for an oral sex toy, a clit sucker, or just some sort of sex toy that will pay close attention to your clitoris, this waterproof Womanizer sex toy may just be the move.
"This is an air pulse stimulation, and while most of these types of clitoral stimulators are not waterproof, this is rated IPX7 waterproof, which means that it is submersible," Lawless says. "This type of clitoral stimulation has become increasingly popular, as it stimulates the clitoris with intense sonic pulses of air. Many women who have difficulty achieving orgasms find that the air pulse sex toys work well for them. Furthermore, they do not cause temporary desensitization as many vibrators do when used for long periods of time."
The Most Versatile Waterproof Sex Toy
Lelo Mona 2 ($160)
"The Lelo Mona 2 is a popular waterproof vibrator known for its versatile design, powerful vibrations, and body-safe materials," says clinical psychologist and sexual wellness therapist Rachel Nithya Karat at Allo Health. "It offers multiple intensity levels and patterns for tailored stimulation."
