Surfing Highlights

Machines

Laamu
Is one of the most photogenic waves in the Maldives. A fast, winding hollow right, best on an incoming tide or it can be too shallow.

ENQUIRE

Ying Yang

Laamu
One of the most consistent spots in the Central Atolls that has a long inside section and can produces some incredibly hollow barrels.

ENQUIRE

Muli Inside / F1

Meemu
A very fast right, with long walls, hollow, barreling, can be shallow, but still with a safe ending.

ENQUIRE

Mauroofs of Kasabu

Dhaarlu
A break outside Kudahuvadhoo island is a right-hander works best on light north/northwest winds and a good southwest swell.

ENQUIRE

Finnimas

Central
Speedy, shallow left that can produce some firing waves. When it is on it can provide some greenroom time.

Inside Mikados

Central
Powerful waves with fast, hollow walls. Can produce some awesome barrels and considered one of Maldive’s best waves.

Blue Bowls or Voodoos

South
Blue Bowls is the most flexible right, tucked inside the pass and protected from SW-W Winds. More of a point style wave, it has good a length of ride and nice bowly sections for performance moves. All swells, all tides and all sizes.

ENQUIRE

Love Charms

South
A series of several reliable lefts, which can handle E winds and any size of swell. Will link up in to a fast wall with barrel sections when working with a solid SW groundswell, Love Charms can break like a Maldivian Cloudbreak.

Beacons

South
Touted as the Maldives’ gutsiest wave, Beacons powerful right tubes break for up to 200 yards over a shallow, unforgiving reef. Straightforward takeoff before it squares up and barrels over the inside section. Prefers swells from South to SW and winds with some North angle.

ENQUIRE

Tiger Stripes

South
Named after the light coloured grooves in the reef that give a striped effect, Tigers is a real growling left in a strong swell. Tricky take offs into a long speedy wall before committing to an inside tube section that wraps and peters out in the channel. Unimpressive when small, it always seems to be bigger than everywhere else. All tides, all variations of S Swells and any N Wind.

Surfing South

It is often said that the Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll (also named Huvadhoo Atoll) offers the best conditions of the Maldives. It works best in March, April and September to November. But it picks up more swell than any other Atoll in the Maldives, and from every direction, all season long. The Gaafu Dhaalu area offers the greatest quantity and variety of spots outside of Male Atolls, without the crowds. To almost every island on the outside of the Atoll, you will find one or two breaks. There is everything from barreling and hollow walls to soft and never-ending playful waves.

Surfing Central

Meemu, Dhaalu, Thaa and Laamu Atolls offer spots exposed to all directions and for all levels. All spots in the Meemu Atoll are on a coastline, facing to the east. Inside F1 is the pick of this atoll and is a perfect, fun long right that stretches into the channel. The Thaa Atoll picks up south-west swell and may be even bigger than spots on east facing coastlines of other atolls.This area will be chosen only in very stable weather conditions. Farms and Chambers are the pick in Thaa and the backdrop is jar droppingly beautiful with the islands still uninhabitable. Spots in the Laamu Atoll are spread, from the south facing coastline, along the east facing up to the north-east corner, where waves wrap around. Machines is our pick here and this perfect mechanical right is a barrel machine on its day. We also like to spend an afternoon visiting Six Senses Resort for a cocktail or two when surfing Ying Yangs.
