São Paulo is getting yet another wave pool. This one will be the second wave pool development for Endless Surf in Brazil. However, the facility’s real calling card is that it will be powered by the company’s largest pool to date.
Located one hour outside São Paulo, the residential community of Praia do Terras will house the first Endless Surf installation in the state of São Paulo. The pool will be powered by the ES66, which has 66 caissons – the pneumatic chambers that power Endless Surf waves. This will make the location the largest Endless Surf lagoon in the world, capable of producing nearly 40-second rides, with five to six distinct sections. It can also operate in a split-peak mode, which will create two simultaneous 20-second waves.
“The ES66 shows what’s possible when we combine scale with our next-generation technology,” said Jesse Crawford, VP of Business Development Latin America at Endless Surf. “Forty seconds on a single wave opens a whole new creative canvas — different sections, transitions, and possibilities that can mirror what surfers want, when they want. With this wave length and customization potential, we believe Praia do Terras will set a new standard for surf parks not just within the Sao Paulo region but across the entire world.”
The pool will be located in the private residential community Terras de São José, located in Itu, just outside São Paulo.
The new pool will enter into stiff competition for wave pools in the São Paulo area. PerfectSwell already has two locations, located in the Boa Vista Village residential development, and the São Paulo Surf Club, located in downtown São Paulo.
