Sir John Kirwan has been given the ‘all clear’ for a $100 million surf park project in Auckland.

The artificial surfing pool will make between 600 and a thousand waves per hour, with more than 30 different settings for all skill sets.

If further approvals go ahead, construction can begin on the 43-hectare area in Dairy Flat later this year.

The All Black legend told Mike Hosking that there'll be a data centre and hotel, so it'll appeal to more than just the surfers.
