Patented Technologies

Wavegarden Cove is a modular electromechanical system that generates up to 1000 waves per hour by moving water particles similar to ocean swells. It was the first bespoke wave generation technology for surfing and is the most sustainable in the industry (see study). At the push of a button, wave characteristics can be adjusted, making them accessible to beginners and professional surfers alike.

  • Most efficient technology in the industry, consuming up to 10 times less energy than any other analog systems. 
  • Patented bathymetry guarantees maximum wave length and quality, and ensures the highest user capacity. 
  • The multitude of successive waves replicate the natural ocean environment, offering an authentic surfing experience for customer profiles.

Exclusive Water Treatment

Innovative system for lagoons with waves with crystal clear and healthy water quality, developed in-house to ensure the lowest Capex and Opex on the market.

Noise Free

The electric motors and machinery are practically noise-free. The only sound that can be heard is that of the breaking waves.

I would love to see these facilities in places where there is no waves and where you can have kids who have never seen the ocean before.
