A Place without a Postcard: Surfing Central Atolls, Maldives, with Sean Holmes<\/span><\/p>\n

.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ex WCT South African top 44 touring pro Sean Holmes makes an annual pilgrimage to the Maldives with The Perfect Wave.<\/p>\n

.<\/span><\/p>\n

You may recall his epic 10 days whilst holidaying with his family at Kandooma<\/a> last year when he scored it as good as it gets late in the season.
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

Earlier in 2017, Sean decided to mix it up and head south from the capital Male aboard The Perfect Wave charter boat Maavahi to a place without a postcard.
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sean gathered a group of friends from South Africa and Australia and went exploring. The Perfect Wave\u2019s surf guide Bob Fawcett shot the photos.
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

Upon his return from the Central Atolls, Sean said, \u201cAs you can imagine, being a former pro surfer,\u00a0I have been fortunate enough to go on many boat trips.\u00a0Let me tell you that good surf alone does not ensure you have a great surf charter experience.\u00a0A well-balanced group of guys and or girls is critical, as is a knowledgeable, friendly boat crew and a spacious, comfortable boat.
\nThe Maldives is one of those bucket list destinations that delivers an excellent combo of surf, seclusion, pristine tropical scenery and endless opportunity for adventure-filled days. Scoring quality waves is the icing on the cake. Of course, having a quality photographer aboard providing free images of your special memories is something The Perfect Wave provided too.\u201d
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n
