About Perth Surf Park
Opening in early 2027, the Perth Surf Park is set to become a premier sports, hospitality, entertainment, and tourism destination for Perth.
Featuring Australia’s largest Wavegarden ‘Cove’ surfing lagoon, the Perth Surf Park will offer perfect waves for everyone in a safe, controlled, and accessible environment. Together with quality hospitality, and leisure amenities, the Perth Surf Park will redefine surf and wellbeing in Western Australia.
Located adjacent to the Kwinana Freeway, 18 kilometres south of the Perth CBD in Cockburn Central, the Perth Surf Park is a 5.9 hectare development that is expected to welcome up to one million guests each year to enjoy unique surf-based experiences, major events, and community programming.
A high-performance surf academy, surf rental, fitness studio, outdoor gym, and skate park complements the surfing lagoon, along with a health and wellness centre, beach club, quality restaurants and bars, events lawn, retail store, members lounge, and rooftop glamping accommodation.
With the support of the WA Government, local investors, and our community, construction is expected to commence in late 2024, ahead of the Perth Surf Park’s public opening in early 2027.
The project is forecast to be cashflow positive and profitable from opening.

For Loan Note holders who do not elect to receive “Pre-Opening” surf benefits, accrued interest for the second year of the Term will be capitalised and repaid at the end of the Term.

From the opening of the Perth Surf Park, Loan Note holders may elect to receive “Post-Opening” surf benefits as an alternative to annual cash interest payments. The benefits include premier access to the park, 60 public surf sessions per year, a 1 hour off-peak “Reef” hire per year, plus other perks and benefits. "Post-Opening" surf benefits may be used by up to 5 nominated persons (e.g. family members, friends, colleagues, staff, or clients).
Loan Note holders will also receive a free double pass (2 public surf sessions) which is valid to surf on their birthday, along with access to a private concierge for personalised bookings, priority access to surfing lagoon bookings, VIP invitations to Perth Surf Park events, and more.
