Surf's up! Fantasy Surf, Orlando's newest (and only) indoor surf park, brings the thrill of surfing to landlocked tourists (and locals, too). Cool off riding the waves -- produced by the patented FlowRider system -- from morning till night. Accommodating up to 30 riders at any one time, the $4-million, 14,000-square-foot aquatic facility features padded walls, a cushioned floor, and beach all covered by a sheet of water that's designed for wipeouts -- making it perfect for beginners and pros alike to hang ten. Sessions are offered in 30-minute increments; the more sessions you purchase, the more money you save. With tickets valid for 18 months from the date of purchase, visitors heading back to Orlando can save a bundle by purchasing multiple sessions all at once. Be sure to check the calendar posted on the website, as Fantasy Surf plays host to pro tours and competitions throughout the year. If you forgot a suit, no worries -- you can pick up the latest surf and swimwear at the Offshore surf shop, well stocked with swimsuits, board shorts, T-shirts, sunglasses, and other necessities. Onlookers and hungry riders can fill up at the Lull cafe (serving snacks, wraps, pizza, and beverages). Riders must meet the 42-inch height requirement for bodyboarding, or the 52-inch height requirement for flowboarding. Signed waivers are also required (and can be downloaded in advance from the website to save time).
