wading area
Ankle-deep pool zone
A wading area is a shallow section of water—in a pool, lake, or beach—where people can stand and walk without swimming.
The term typically describes designated zones safe for children or non-swimmers: The park has a wading area for toddlers.
At natural swimming spots, wading areas are where the water stays ankle- to knee-deep.
