Skudin Surf at American Dream

Skudin Surf at American Dream is an indoor PerfectSwell wave pool inside the American Dream mall at 1 American Dream Way, East Rutherford, New Jersey, about 9 miles from Times Square. It is run by Skudin Surf and has operated since 2021 with warm water all year. It closed for renovations on Tuesday 4 August 2026; the operator says to expect updates on a reopening date a few months from then. DreamWorks Water Park and its Far Far A Bay wave pool stay open in the meantime.

A PerfectSwell pool from American Wave Machines, an air-chamber system that fires programmable waves indoors. The operator's quiver runs from foamies and bodyboards to longboards, mid-lengths, fishes and shortboards, and it recommends a board with about 5 litres more volume than your everyday board.

New York area surfers in the flat or freezing months, and families already at the mall, once it reopens. Private Dream Sessions give the whole pool to a group of up to 20.

Closed for renovations; the operator says session and board rental pricing will be published on reopening.

Wait for the reopening announcement. The address is 1 American Dream Way, East Rutherford; Newark Liberty is about 20 minutes away by car and Midtown Manhattan about 20 minutes outside rush hour.
