Happy New Year! We hope you scored some downtime (and maybe a few waves) over the break and are paddling into 2026 fully charged.
As a regular guest, you know that Perfect Wave Travel is the sibling of Music in Paradise (MIP), our exclusive music events that grew from our shared passions for surf and music.
These epic experiences are not just a holiday. It’s about taking the world’s most iconic surf destinations and adding a world-class soundtrack. What started as a few acoustic jams back in 2014 has evolved into the most exclusive music experience on the planet. It’s about days of waves matched with nights of music, rocking from sunset on the beach!
Why 2026 will be our biggest year yet:
We have 9 magical events lined up for 2026. Our mission remains the same: getting you up close and personal with your favourite artists in paradise.
Whether you’re spending the day chasing swell, hanging with the family, or connecting with like-minded legends at the bar, these are the trips that stick with you forever.
