Professional surfing legend Kelly Slater plans to open the world’s largest artificial wave in California's Coachella Valley.
"The Coachella Valley is dominated by more than 150 golf courses," said Noah Hahn, a partner at Meriwether Companies."This is a radically different vision."The team behind Coral Mountain is betting big on attracting a new generation of vacationers.
"We went to Palm Springs last Thanksgiving for five days, and by day two we were already bored," Hahn said of his family vacation."There was nothing to do." The $200 million Coral Mountain complex, which is in the permitting stage, would have a 150-room hotel and up to 600 homes in the $1 million to $5 million range,. Access to amenities would be exclusive to homeowners, hotel guests, members and their guests. Dining would be open to the public through reservations.
The centerpiece of Coral Mountain would be the wave basin, which would hold about 18 million gallons of water. A golf course, by contrast, uses 1 million gallons of water a day, Hahn said.The Coral Mountain wave would have room for about 25 surfers at a time — about five on the main wave and 10 each on the smaller waves at each end of the basin. It would feature waves for all athletic levels, Hahn said.
