Sprout Daily Does the Maldives surf trip

Text and photos by Murray Fraser – Sprout Daily

Somebody once told me you don’t score that many barrels in the Maldives.  Well so far on my trip there have been quite a few tubes, which kind of busts that myth.

There are definitely barrels around if you want to hunt them down and may I suggest Coke’s is a good place to start your search.  The break at Cokes is named after the old Coca-Cola factory that used to be situated on the atoll.  The reef at Cokes juts out a little more to the east than all the other reefs in the North Male atoll chain, so it acts as a bit of a swell magnet.

We have been scoring fun waves on our sprout daily Maldives trip, so much so that we will be back for two trips in 2016.
