Wave Pool Party started as a shared Google Doc between three friends who kept flying across oceans to surf glorified swimming pools.
We couldn't find one honest, opinionated site that told us which settings actually barreled, where to sleep for cheap, which taco truck was worth the walk, and when the festival week would price us out. So we built one.
No affiliate deals. No ranking algorithm. Every pool visited in person, every review from a real session. If a wave sucks, we say so.
