Visitor tips

Before you even get in the pool

Leave loose items like flip-flops, sunglasses, and jewelry in a locker. You won't be allowed on the waves with them, and they're easy to lose in the pool.
Reapply sunscreen often, especially after a wave crashes over you. Consider a waterproof phone case if you want to capture some pics.
Water shoes can protect your feet from the sometimes-rocky bottom of the pool. If you prefer flip-flops, take them off before entering. You might lose them if they come off during a wave.

Entering the Wave Palace

The waves are strongest towards the back of the pool. If you're new to wave pools, start near the shallow end, where the waves are gentler. Gradually work your way back as you get comfortable.
Having a friend or family nearby is a good idea, especially for young children or those who are nervous.
Lifeguards are there for your safety. Follow their instructions and any posted signs about safety procedures.

Riding the Waves

When a wave comes, turn your back to it and lean forward. This creates a more stable position and prevents you from getting knocked over.
Take a deep breath before the wave hits, and hold it until you surface. This will prevent saltwater from getting in your mouth.
If you get caught in a strong current, don't panic. Stay calm and allow yourself to be carried until you can safely reach the side of the pool.

Exiting the Wave Palace

There are designated exits around the pool. Locate them beforehand so you know where to go when you're ready to leave.
When exiting the wave zone, be mindful of people coming in and watch out for oncoming waves.

Bonus Tip:

Have your towel and dry clothes readily available at your locker for a quick and comfortable change after your wave adventure.
