Cannon Beach, the 37-acre surf, shop, gym and multiuse development project in Mesa recently announced the addition of a new anchor tenant, KTR.

Located at the cross streets of Power and Warner roads in Mesa, Cannon Beach is expected to open in 2023.

The project broke ground in June 2021 and will bring the ocean to Arizona in a place unlike any other across the state. It has 500,000 square feet of retail, restaurant and hotel space centered around the focal point, a state-of-the art surf lagoon, and now KTR, an indoor action sports center, according to a release.

KTR is the power-packed thrill-infused fun zone for families with children of all ages offering skateboarding, scooters, a parkour/ninja warrior course, trampoline, BMX and other high-flying aerialist attractions, it states.

This will be the seventh KTR location in the Valley and is set to become the corporate franchise headquarters. Located on the mezzanine level overlooking the lagoon, the new, 30,000-square-foot space will include special attractions for guests of all ages and will also be another option for onsite private events.

“Cannon Beach and KTR is a match made in heaven for families looking for a healthy alternative to getting kids off their digital devices while having the freedom to play,” Cole Cannon, founder of the Cannon Beach project, said in the release. “There isn’t a better anchor to compliment the surf and lifestyle amenities of the development. Whether you need your family to burn some energy on one of the attractions or to put your feet in the sand and watch surfers ride the waves, this is the place to be.”

KTR will complement Cannon Beach’s line up of attractions and restaurants with its flare for the extreme fun and adventure. Kids can learn how to surf before they try out the actual lagoon. It will also offer its hallmark programming that has facilitated countless birthday parties, group/corporate events, and training, including at the Olympic level.

“We are thrilled to join Cannon Beach and be another opportunity for fun and adventure,” Ron Sciarro, co-founder of the KTR franchise, said in the release. “Cole’s team and ours share the value of using our resources to better the community and we look forward to hosting a variety of groups. We’re especially excited to invite non-profit entities and church groups to our facility at no cost throughout the operating season in hopes of giving a little something back to the communities we love and serve.”
