Why Texas works for companies

Texas has the two extremes of corporate surfing. Waco Surf is the most battle-tested large-group venue in the country: published private-session tiers, on-site cabins, and buyouts that scale to genuinely big headcounts. Austin Surf Club, under construction now, is the opposite: a Discovery Land Company private club where access runs through membership. One of these is your next offsite. The other is a reason to know a member.

Planner questions

Texas corporate surf FAQs

Can Waco Surf handle a company-wide event?

Yes. Waco has the largest practical event capacity of any US wave pool, with buyout configurations for large groups, on-site lodging, and food and beverage that keeps everyone on property. It is the safest big-headcount choice in the category.

Can we book a corporate event at Austin Surf Club?

Not today. The club is under construction with a private membership model, and corporate access is unconfirmed. If your event is in the next couple of years, Waco Surf is the Texas venue you can actually contract.

How do we get a group to Waco?

Most groups fly into DFW or Austin and transfer about 1 hr 45 min, or fly directly into Waco Regional, 20 minutes from the pool. On-site cabins mean no hotel shuttle logistics once you arrive.
