The resort is perfect for surfing couples, honeymooners, families or the boys looking to kick back in style.
Located in the North Male atoll, approximately 30 minutes boat ride from Male airport, the resort is a four-star multi-facility island paradise with sandy beaches, crystal clear pristine lagoons surrounded by coral reefs teeming with colourful tropical fish. More importantly, it hosts a perfect left-hander which wraps around the south east corner.
Not only do you have access to the quality left-hander within paddling distance, but also use of the resort boats for transfers to the outer reefs such as Cokes, Chickens, Sultans, Jails etc.
Your Guides Richard and Amy Kotch
The exclusive World Surfaris Surfer packages includes the following:

- Exclusive access to professional photos of yourself surfing at very reasonable prices taken by World Surfaris inhouse photographer. see example images at www.richardkotchphotography.com World Surfaris surf passes can only be purchased prior to your arrival.
