And I thought I'd seen everything! How about surfing in a luxury resort housing community just minutes away from Palm Springs?
The wait for the perfect wave is almost over as developers appear on course to bring the largest, rideable open-barrel, human-made wave in the world to the California desert. As scheduled, construction of Coral Mountain, a first-of-its-kind masterplan sports & wellness resort community in La Quinta, will begin mid 2021. Assuming no delays, the 400-acre project is expected to be completed in early 2023.
Located in the shadow of La Quinta's Coral Mountain, the $200 million sports and wellness resort includes a 150-room luxury hotel, private club, restaurants, sports facilities, up to 600 private residences, and a 20-acre surfable wave basin.
The biggest lure, of course, will be the waves created by Kelly Slater Wave Company technology. Slater is regarded as the greatest professional surfer in the world. Homeowners, hotel guests, and members will have exclusive access to the 18-million-gallon wave basin that will pump out waves that roll for more than 700 yards and offer almost one-minute rides.
The resort will also include skateboard runs, bike tracks, mountain bike trails, tennis and pickle ball courts, and yoga. Click here to learn more...
