01 November 2024

Bahrain Real Estate Investment Company (Edamah), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the kingdom’s sovereign wealth fund Bahrain Mumtalakat Holding Company, has partnered with GFH Financial Group to launch the Mena region’s first surf park using the state-of-the-art ‘Wavegarden Cove’ technology.

Bahrain Surf Park – Club Hawaii Experience, which is scheduled to open in 2026, will form the first leisure and entertainment element of the wider Bilaj Al Jazayer development, a 1.3-million-sq-m project along the kingdom’s southwest coast.

Shaikh Abdulla bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, CEO of Mumtalakat and Chairman of Edamah, said: “We are excited to announce the development of Bahrain Surf Park – Club Hawaii Experience, which will be transformational for the tourism and recreation sectors in the Kingdom of Bahrain.”

Wavegarden’s Chief Commercial Director Fernando Odriozola said: “We are very proud to partner with Bahrain Surf Park – Club Hawaii Experience and bring our world-class waves and the incredible sport of surfing to the region.”

The Wavegarden Cove, he stated, can accommodate up to 90 surfers and produce up to 1,000 waves per hour. The wave-making technology has the lowest energy consumption on the market, and the facilities provide a vast range of social and economic benefits to local communities.

According to Edamah, the development is expected to attract 300,000 visitors per year, with over 140,000 surf sessions annually. The park will feature F&B outlets, a spacious terrace, a retail store, cabanas, event space, and a large private entertainment area.
