Sunway Lagoon

Surf Beach (above picture)

Nowhere else one can find a man made beach for surfing right next to a shopping mall.

Sure Beach was recently transformed with the placement of 6000 tons of sand, palm trees and huts in the area, creating a tropical beach oasis in the middle of the city. City dwellers no longer need to travel tormenting long distances to have a fulfilling seaside experience.

This newly opened Sunway Surf Beach is one of the world's most unique entertainment venues and has been an irresistible draw to some of the world's most prestigious events like Quiksilver Revolution Tour 06, X Games Asia 2006, promotional concerts by world-renowned artists like Wang Lee Hom, Westlife, FIR, SHE and more ...

The Sunway Lagoon boasts the largest surf pool in the world, spanning 5 acres and generating 8-foot high waves that crash onto Malaysia's longest man-made beach within a city.
