HOUSTON – HTX Surf is a new man-made surf lagoon that will be making waves in Houston in 2024.
The 6-acre lagoon will be part of Generation Park, which is expected to break ground in early 2023.
“We’re thrilled to welcome this innovative, world-class surfing destination to Generation Park. Such a unique amenity is a great asset for Houston and will attract a wide range of personalities–from professional surfers, amateur boarders, families, and corporate groups among others,” said owner/developer of Generation Park Ryan McCord.

The park will create up to 1,000 waves per hour and will be able to comfortably accommodate 70 surfers, allowing beginners and advanced surfers to simultaneously surf in different areas of the lagoon.
“The amenities and experiences at HTX Surf will rival a best day on the water, whether you’re an expert or new to the sport,” said McCord.
