Austin Surf Club is a private residential community taking shape on more than 330 acres in Del Valle, just southeast of Austin, Texas. It is a partnership between Discovery Land Company, known for its members-only lifestyle communities, and eleven-time world champion Kelly Slater. The Real Deal reported 147 residences around a Kelly Slater Wave Co surf basin, which the club describes as the world's largest surf basin powered by Kelly Slater surf tech.
Beyond the wave, the community is planned with a wellness spa, farm-to-table dining, trail systems, paddle sports, and a skate park. Unlike some Discovery Land communities where membership is tied strictly to homeownership, Austin Surf Club is also expected to offer club memberships. In April 2026 construction paused after seven businesses filed $4.6 million in liens, according to The Real Deal. By July the liens had passed $16 million, and the developers had petitioned for a municipal management district to raise about $171 million in property tax for infrastructure. No restart date has been given, so the timeline is uncertain.
The community is anchored by a Kelly Slater Wave Co wave lagoon. It shares its surf with Austin Surf Club.
