Creating a Surf Spot Isn't Easy
- "As the name implies, an artificial surfing reef (ASR) is an underwater man-made structure intended to create quality surf where there's otherwise none. But the perpetual promise of a permanent structure that focuses and grooms swell has thus far proved largely empty, both because of the cost involved in designing, permitting and installing the ASR, and also due to the technical difficulty in trying the create a reef that consistently produces quality waves." - excerpt from Beachapedia article Artificial Surfing Reefs.
