Exploring the Top Dildo Positions for Solo Play
Getting the most from dildos isn’t always about being wild or unconventional during solo play. It isn’t about pounding as fast, as hard or as deep as you can either. It’s all a little more… considered. Because one of the best ways to experience the ultimate dildo delight is to use your dildo in a variety of different positions.
Different positions have the ability to target specific erogenous zones including the g-spot, p-spot and a-spot. The angle, depth, and rhythm we choose when playing with dildos all impact the sensations we feel. This means that a simple shift in posture can bring about a whole new set of sensations that contrast significantly compared to other positions. Understanding how the top dildo positions work can prove especially useful for those seeking very specific stimulation of a favourite sweet spot. And for more general play, this knowledge will enable you to enhance your masturbation, keeping play fresh, exciting and thrilling.
The beauty of flying solo is that you can explore positions at your own pace, in a safe environment free from judgement or pressure from others. Exploring on your own helps you to discover and connect with your own body at a deeper level. Time alone provides the opportunity to learn what feels good and how to achieve the desired sensations and stimulation. Whatever you’re looking for; gentle stimulation or a more intense experience, there’s a dildo position waiting to help you unlock your full potential.
How to Maximise Pleasure with the Angled Entry Position
Angled positions allow us to reach certain erogenous zones including the g-spot and the a-spot. Given the position within the body where these sweet spots sit, it can often be tricky to reach and then stimulate them.
Different shaped dildos are great tools for reaching these zones. Curved dildos follow the natural contours of the body making it easier to reach g-spots, p-spots and a-spots. These dildos may also feature a larger or flattened head that aids massage of these spots. But what if you don’t have a curved dildo? Or what if your curved dildo isn’t giving you the hit you desire? Let us introduce you to the best dildo positions for just this scenario…
Doggy Style

This position is ideal for both g-spot and p-spot stimulation. Let’s explore how to achieve maximum pleasure using doggy style:
- Get into position. Get down on all fours being careful to have your knees shoulder-width apart and your hands or elbows resting on a something comfortable such as a rug or duvet. Arch your back slightly, tilting the pelvis upwards. This opens up the angle for deeper penetration, making the g-spot or p-spot more accessible to the dildo.
- Guide the dildo. When using a suction-cup dildo, position your body so the toy is directly behind you and then adjusting the height to match whatever feels best for you. For handheld dildos, guide it towards your chosen entrance with one hand while you use your other hand to support yourself.
- Insert the dildo. Take time when inserting a dildo. Slow and steady is safer as it allows the muscles and the body to adjust and accommodate the dong. This will make play more comfortable. Insert a little at a time and only insert as much as feels good for you. There is no need to insert the entire dildo if you don’t want to.
- Playtime: Gently move your hips back and forth, letting the dildo glide in at a comfortable depth and rhythm. Adjusting the angle of your back enables different levels of intensity and a variety of sensations.
Baptism


A wonderfully sensory position as you combine water, bubbles and stimulation for an all encompassing experience.
- Get into position: Called the baptism because this position is best performed in the bath tub; this one is suitable for vaginal or anal penetration. Stick your dildo securely on the inside of the bathtub. Making sure it’s at the right height for your chosen orifice. Now, position yourself appropriately.
- Time to glide: Placing your hands on the bottom of the tub move your body in rhythmical gliding motions. Lots of silky bubble bath can make this easier.
- Playtime: As you glide, experiment with different speeds, depths and rhythms to discover what feels good for you. Having warm water around you will add to the arousing and sensual sensations.
Angled play doesn’t have to involve a specific sexual position. You can experiment with pillows or supports to achieve your own perfect placement.
Best Dildos for G-Spot, A-Spot and P-Spot Stimulation
Each of these magical zones are situation within the body at angles that can make them tricky to reach. The a-spot and g-spot are located on the front wall of the vagina. The g-spot is about 2 to 3 inches inside whilst the a-spot is even deeper, sometimes 5 inches inside. The p-spot sits approx. 2 to 3 inches inside the rectum of those with a penis on the front of the body. Curved dildos enable you to reach these spots more easily making it possible to stimulate them for sexual pleasure.

Discover the Joy of Riding: Vertical Positions Explained
Vertical positions offer yet another bunch of diverse sensations to explore. Riding a dildo enables the user to be in full control of depth and thrusting speed. What’s more, the best vertical positions not only enhance pleasure, they also offer the added benefits of strengthening your pelvic floor, combining physical fitness with intensely satisfying experiences.
Here are two popular vertical dildo positions to try out. Suction cup dildos work well for vertical position as they can be stuck to any clean, flat surface, making control much easier and leaving your hands free.
Squatting
Position yourself directly over the dildo by getting into a squatting position. Position the dildo underneath your chosen entrance. Apply plenty of water based lube to both the dildo and your self before lowering yourself down and allowing the dildo to gently penetrate the body. Once comfortably inserted you are free to ride away. Starting slow will help to reduce any muscle fatigue as this one can be quite a work out for the thighs! Balance is crucial for control so you might find it helpful to have a nearby surface such as the bed or a table to hold onto. If this sounds a little too intense on your body then maybe the squatting chair may be more comfortable…
The Chair


Similar to the squatting position, the chair is just a little more relaxed. Simply sit on the edge of a sturdy chair and place the dildo on the seat. Position the dildo to align with the orifice for penetration and lower yourself over, and downwards just as you would to squat. A suction cup dildo is a must for this position if you want to make full use of the chair. Having the dildo stuck down in a secure position means you can use your hands to grip the chair for stability. You can also lean back and forth to further mix up sensations

Let’s see if any of these tickle your fancy…
Position | How to Do It | Benefits of This Position |
---|---|---|
Missionary | Possibly the most well-known sex position of them all, it is also the easiest. All you need to do is lie flat on your back. You may choose to pop a pillow under the head for added comfort. Open the legs and reach through with your dildo to penetrate either the vagina or the anus. Place a pillow underneath the hips for deeper penetration. | The classic choice for deep penetration. Simple yet effective. Full body comfort. Easy to locate the desired entrance and insert the dildo. Reduced strain on muscles. |
Spooning | Typically spooning is done with a partner for intimacy, but the same position can be used for solo play. Lie on one side of you body and place the dildo in the chosen entrance. Rock gently forwards and backwards to achieve the desired stimulation. | Relaxed and comfortable. Allows you to feel every inch of the dildo as you explore deeper sensations. Ideal for slow, rhythmical movements. |
Belly Down | Place the dildo of choice vertically on the floor or bed. Lying belly down position yourself on top of the dildo. Adding a pillow under your chest can elevate your hips for deeper penetration and more comfortable thrusting. | Deep penetration with very little effort. The natural weight of your body helps to keep the dildo in place during play. |


Top tips for the lying down technique – Combining these positions with additional external stimulation will further heighten pleasure. Consider using a clit sucker, finger vibrator or bullet vibrator at the same time for dual stimulation.
The Benefits of Switching Positions During Solo Sessions
Playing on your own lets you can do what you like, when you like without needing to consider a partner. Meaning you can mix things up a bit to keep everything as thrilling as possible. Because a little movement can go a long way in making your solo play sessions even hotter.
Here are just 3 raunchy reasons why switching positions during solo sessions is a game-changer:
Helps Avoid Tiredness: Let’s face it sex can sometimes be quite the workout. Aching wrists, jawlines and sore thighs can all play a part in getting frisky. Changing positions during play helps to give one set of muscles a rest whilst another set take over. Meaning you can keep playing at an exciting pace, without feeling like you’ve hit the gym. In all seriousness, tiredness is hardly horny. Nobody enjoys sex when they are in discomfort or lack energy so switch positions to stay fresh and active.
Increased Arousal: We know that different positions bring different sensations so switching positions is going to ensure many different feelings and lots of lovely stimulation. Different angles of penetration can hit different spots, ramping up the intensity. Going from a lying down position to a doggy position is certainly going to feel entirely different. Changing positions builds sexual tension, stops play becoming samey and keeps anticipation high.
Variety Is the Spice of Life: Sticking within our comfort zones can make for a monotonous routine. By switching positions, play stays fresh and exciting, sparking new sensations each time. This makes the experience more pleasurable as well as enabling you to explore your body in new and different ways. And who knows… maybe you’ll discover a new dildo position that quickly becomes a firm favourite?!
Top Tip for Changing Positions – Choosing flexible, ergonomic designs help you to seamlessly switch between positions while maintaining comfort and pleasure. Having a selection of different dildos can also help to spice things up.
Safety Tips: Using Your Dildo with Care and Confidence
For a worry-free and enjoyable experience, it’s essential to use your dildo safely. Whilst the best positions for dildos are great for erotic exploration, it’s important to keep safety at the forefront. Putting a few things in place and being aware of potential pitfalls, helps to ensure peace of mind allowing you to fully focus on the fun!
Here are passionbugs’ top 5 tips for safe dildo play:
- Choose safe materials: At passionbugs we only stock body safe sex toys. This is because we understand that your toys are going to be venturing into some pretty intimate zones. Body safe materials ensure toys are gentle of those sensitive areas.
- Lube, lube and more lube: Lube is your best friend in the bedroom. It has the power to keep things moving freely without friction or snagging (ouch!). Lube also makes everything feel incredible so why wouldn’t you want lashings of it?
- Take your time: Taking things slow and steady will allow your body to adjust. Never be tempted to force insertion—it should feel good, not painful. Start with smaller toys and gradually work your way up to larger more challenging dongs.
- Listen to your body: You know your body best so if something doesn’t feel right stop. Take a moment to pause, readjust and try again.
- Keep it clean: Giving your dildo a good clean before and after use not only makes it hygienic for better sexual health, it also makes your toy more attractive and inviting to play with. Keeping toys cleans extends their lifespan meaning you get more bang for your buck!

Ready to elevate your dildo solo play to uncharted heights? Now that you’ve mastered the basics, surely it’s time to dive into advanced techniques? Let us show you how to intensify your pleasure and deepen that connection with your body. From experimenting with dual stimulation to incorporating temperature play or vibration patterns, the possibilities are endless.
Temperature Play – Playing with temperatures add another layer of sensation creating further excitement and stimulation. A cold dildo will cause the muscles to contract, giving you a very intense feeling which will result in a shudder of pleasure. Hot glass dildos make the blood vessels dilate increasing the blood flow in the vagina or anus heightening stimulation. Cool down in the fridge or cold water / Heat up in warm water or the microwave.
Vibrations – Adding vibrations to dildo play can significantly enhance the experience by stimulating nerve endings more effectively and creating deeper, more intense sensations. Vibrations can be added by purchasing a vibrating dildo, by adding a vibrating cock ring to the dildo or by using a bullet vibrator in unison with your dildo.
Double Penetration Play – Combine your dildo with another penetrative toy such as a butt plug, anal beads or an anal dildo for double penetration. For those that want to role play a threesome, double penetration sex toys are the perfect stand in.
