On October 7, 2016, North America’s first surf park opened in Austin, Texas. The NLand Surf Park is a 14-acre lagoon that features waves for surfers of all levels, including open face waves with a 35-second ride for experts.

The lagoon is 100% self-sustaining and filled with more than 11 million gallons of rainwater collected from the NLand property. Rainwater is channelled to a wet pond and bio-filtered by algae and fish before it moves to a deep reservoir and through the filtration system for treatment.

Founded by Doug Coors, an engineer and a surfer, NLand teamed up with Spanish engineering firm Wavegarden SL, to design, manufacture and install the wave generating system.
