Riding the Perfect Wave: Why We Chose Wavegarden

One of the most important decisions in developing our surf park was choosing the right wave technology. After extensive research and visits to several Wavegarden parks worldwide, it became clear that Wavegarden’s Cove system was the perfect fit for Bangkok.

Proven track record – Wavegarden isn’t just a name in surf parks; it’s the global leader. With ten operational parks across Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America, they’ve shown that surf parks can be both successful and profitable, with returns above 20%.

Energy smart – Wavegarden Cove is the most efficient and sustainable wave generator on the market, consuming only 0.3 to 1.0 kWh per wave depending on size and power. This unmatched efficiency not only keeps operating costs down.

High capacity, more waves for everyone – Each lagoon can host a maximum of 90 surfers at the same time, making it possible for more people to enjoy the waves without long waits. This also makes it a strong business model, generating more sessions and more opportunities for visitors to get in the water.

Waves for all skill levels – From beginners taking their first steps on a board to advanced surfers looking for big turns, Wavegarden offers over 20 different wave types. The lagoon is designed so that beginners can share space safely with intermediate surfers, while advanced sessions run separately. It’s perfect for families, surf schools, and pros all in the same space.

Reliable technology you can count on – Wavegarden machines are built to last, with over 99% uptime across their facilities. Consistent, high-quality waves mean a better experience for visitors and smoother operations for the park.

Global expertise, local impact – Beyond the technology itself, Wavegarden provides operational guidance on everything from machine calibration to surf school programmes and park layout, helping us build a world-class facility that’s safe, fun, and efficient.

Wavegarden is more than just a technology provider — they’re a true partner. Together, we’re creating a surf park that’s safe, sustainable, and endlessly fun for everyone, from first-time surfers to seasoned pros. We can’t wait to bring the stoke to Bangkok and see our lagoon come alive!
