While it has certainly been a strange year, we’re looking forward to resuming some of our summer traditions here in Washington. Lake Chelan’s Slidewaters water park is set to open Memorial Day weekend, leading to a season of fun for visitors of all ages (with some precautions in place, of course). And this year, they’ll have an exciting new neighbor.

Lakeside Surf is a complete surf facility located next door to Slidewaters, and they’ve just opened the world’s largest standing wave.

Slidewaters has been in business for almost 40 years, offering 12 acres of water park fun to all who visit Lake Chelan.

Lakeside Surf This is truly a place for people of all ages. From fast-paced water slides to lazy rivers, it has something for everyone.

And as of May 1, there’s a new attraction in town: the world’s largest standing wave, created by Citywave USA.
