Abstract: Personal flotation devices for water activities, which devices include a pair of front panels divided by a zipper for easy ingress and egress by the wearer and fitted with multiple clips for adjustment to the size of the user and attachment to other flotation devices. A pair of adjustable side connecting panels connect each front panel to a back or rear panel, typically having a clip-hinged, floating head support and an adjustable bottom connecting panel connects the bottom of the front panels to the bottom of the respective back or rear panels, extending between the legs of the user. Removable and adjustable shoulder straps may be employed between the front panels and the back or rear panel and one or more connecting elements, including a “buddy strap”, may be connected to two or more of the flotation devices to join multiple swimmers or floaters. A child or adult flotation device may be strapped to an adult flotation device to accommodate children and to provide safety in rough water.
