Surfing
The region is largely unexplored. There are currently 13 named breaks on Baa Atoll, but only 4 are surfed on a regular basis. There are 3 other atolls that can be reach within a day by boat from Baa Atoll: Lhaviyani to the west, Noonu to the northwest, and Raa to the north. This is a fantastic area for surfers who want to surf newly discovered or completely uncharted surf spots. The best time to surf the Northern Atolls is during the South-West Monsoon season, from April to October, with May-August period being the peak wave season. Amazingly, this also happens to be a low season in terms of Maldives travel calendar. This means that the resort prices are much lower than during the peak November-February period which caters for dive holidays during this period.
