Surf Music in Paradise fuses a love of the ocean, and music, in one unique offering. Days will be spent surfing some of the world’s most rippable waves in the Maldives, and as the sun sets music legends perform live with the crashing waves as percussion. The intimate gigs ensure guests enjoy direct interaction with the performers, and a front row experience. In June 2014 we launched the Surf Music In Paradise series featuring Donavon Frankenreiter at Kandooma Resort, the Maldives. In June the following year Pete Murray and Matt Smith performed, and then in September Tex Perkins and Murray Patterson played 4 incredible gigs in 7 days at Kandooma. Since Donny, Pete and Tex we have been fortunate enough to host the likes of Phil Jamieson, Jimmy Barnes and Diesel, Bernard Fanning, Ocean Alley and the Hoodoo Gurus. And coming in 2022!?
