About NLand Surf Park

Doug Coors brings the ocean to Austin, Texas! An engineer and a surfer, NLand Surf Park’s Founder and CEO has been on a 15 year journey to discover a wave technology that mimics a perfect break. Coors’s dream is now a reality.

NLand Surf Park will be the only inland surfing destination in North America for surfers and wave sport enthusiasts from novices to world-class competitors. The lagoon will feature one, four and perfectly tubing six foot waves every 60 seconds with a lengthy surfing experience of 35 seconds per wave. Created in conjunction with the Spanish engineering firm Wavegarden, widely regarded as a leader in wave technology, both companies are dedicated to environmental stewardship in lockstep with ocean surfing. Even in the most challenging drought conditions, the lagoon will be self-sustaining with rainwater.
