Floating Surfing Park, Australia

From series “Fancy Houses and Hotels Located on Water or Under Water”
An unusual recreation area will appear in Melbourne in case of realization of another bright project. Here, an over water surf park is to be built. The Damian Rogers Architecture company is going to work on the construction of the park in cooperation with the Arup engineering bureau. The specialists of these companies created a project of an unusual park. It is planned to place it in one of the city harbors. One of the most attractive locations is the Victoria Bay.

The surf park will be a huge pool, the length of which is 160 meters. For the convenience of guests, the pool is planned to be equipped with a special water heating system. The most difficult stage of the project will be the construction of a wave formation system, whose maximum height is one and a half meters. The original park is sure to attract everyone who is not indifferent to water sports, as well as those who have long dreamed of mastering the basics of surfing.

Unfortunately, not always fans of surfing can enjoy their favourite entertainment directly on the beach. Vagaties of nature can prevent their rest. With the advent of a surf park, the problem will be solved for residents of Melbourne. Tourists will definitely appreciate the entertainment complex. In addition to the pool, a comfortable recreation area with a sandy beach, cozy cafes and even shops is to be built, so you can spend days in the park. The surf park, which is planned to be constructed in Melbourne, will not be the only one of its kind. One of these parks is already open in the United States, in the city of Nishua. It is very popular with locals and tourists. Next - Houseboat Saunalautta
