The Wave Bristol
Bristol, United Kingdom
Review
Not a slide park — a real inland surf lagoon. First-timers come away buzzing, and the teaching is calm and well paced. Spectators get a good cafe view if only one child wants to surf.
Our recommendation. Book a beginner session rather than a seasoned-surfer slot. Combine with a walk at nearby Ashton Court.
