Commercial development has officially kicked off on Crest New York, a $35 million luxury wave pool and private membership facility situated on Precision Drive in Shirley. Spearheaded by father-and-son developers Chris and Brett Portera through Crest Surf Clubs, the 3.49-acre project marks the debut venue for the specialized real estate brand, positioned near the Long Island Expressway corridor.
The centerpiece of the complex is a 1.2-acre, 55,000-square-foot artificial lagoon utilizing custom wave-generation technology designed by Premier Surf Systems. Engineered to produce tailored wave profiles ranging from one-foot swells for beginners to seven-foot wedges for advanced surfers, the temperature-controlled pool provides year-round surfing options outside of open ocean conditions. Operational design leadership for the site experience was overseen by Adrian Tobin, whose past work includes wave venue projects such as Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch in California and Alaïa Bay in Switzerland.
Beyond the aquatic infrastructure, the site plan incorporates a 9,000-square-foot clubhouse featuring a glass-enclosed dining establishment overlooking the lagoon, dedicated wellness and spa facilities, surf coaching programs, and member concierge services. Located within a commercial park setting, the private club targets regional sports enthusiasts and East End visitors seeking private, scheduled water access.
