AN attraction that was forced to close last year has revealed plans for its £21million reopening. Surf Snowdonia, which opened in in Wales in 2015, was forced to close last summer. And the world's first inland surfing park could be set to reopen as a slightly different attraction.
The multi-million plans include making the surfing lagoon smaller, by turning it into an inland beach. The existing wave pontoon will be removed, with two separate surfing zones instead. Around the lagoon and beach will be 21 holiday lodges, adding to the current lodges as part of Adventure Parc Snowdonia.

And the Adrenaline Indoors venue will be turned into an new leisure attraction called Snow Tunnel, along year-round skiing and snowboarding.
A surf academy and bike pump track would remain at the site as well.
