TAMPA, Fla. (BLOOM) — After two years of negotiations, Peak Surf Park has secured a 35-acre site within Pasco County’s Two Rivers development, bringing the dream of a state-of-the-art surf park closer to reality. Slated for completion in late 2027, the park aims to be a hub for surfing, community engagement, and recreation in West Central Florida.

The project, led by founder Tony Miller, promises a combination of cutting-edge surf technology and lifestyle amenities. The centerpiece will be a Surf Lakes-powered wave lagoon, offering a controlled surf environment suitable for riders of all skill levels. Surrounding the lagoon, plans include half a mile of beaches, event spaces, restaurants, fitness facilities, and retail shops.

“Beyond my longtime passion for surfing, it has been my goal to create a truly unique, unparalleled guest experience in the Tampa Bay area,” Miller said. “This project will continue to have a number of moving parts to get from concept to conclusion, but I look forward to delivering Peak Surf Park as a destination for those seeking waves, adventure, entertainment, or their ‘third’ place for community and lifestyle.”

A Key Piece of Two Rivers

The surf park will be integrated into the larger 6,000-acre Two Rivers master-planned community, developed by Eisenhower Property Group. Two Rivers, which spans into Hillsborough County, features a mix of residential and commercial areas, luxury amenities, and a private golf course designed by Scottish architect David McLay-Kidd.

Residents of Two Rivers will have access to amenities such as a resort-style social club, pools, and a district park with shopping and dining options, further enhancing the appeal of the location.

Economic and Community Impact

An economic impact study commissioned by Miller projects significant benefits for the region. Over a decade, the park is expected to generate more than $1.3 billion in business output, create approximately 700 jobs annually, and contribute nearly $150 million in state and local tax revenue.

Peak Surf Park also aims to prioritize sustainability and inclusivity, incorporating conservation efforts and community outreach into its operations.

Funding and Construction Timeline

Miller recently launched a crowdfunding campaign targeting accredited investors to fund pre-construction efforts, with plans to expand to retail investors in early 2025. The construction phase is expected to take 18-24 months following the completion of entitlements.
