Surfing in Huvadoo atoll Maldives

Surfing in Maldives »::Surf Sites in Male' atoll »::Tips for Surfers»

Most of the tourists who come to surf in Maldives flock to only 7 surf sites lying north of the airport. Due to the  increase in the number of surfers, specially during the high season, the surf points in South Male' atoll are now a little crowded.

For experienced surfers, the surf points in Huvadhoo atoll are a real challenge. This is the single biggest natural Atoll in Maldives and lie at the edge of the two and half degree channel, which runs across Maldives. The atoll is about 300Km south of the International airport. Surfers who has visited these sites depict these sites much vigorous than which are found in Male' atoll.

There are no tourist accommodation in any of the inhabited islands in this atoll and tourists will have to take accommodation on locally built Live-aboard vessels.  There are vessels available with accommodation upto 20 guests. Since there is a local airport in one of the islands, Ga'dhoo with flights 4 to 5 days a week the transportation difficulty has also become a thing of the past. The flying time from the International airport is around 1 hour 10 minutes.

Everything has to be arranged before-hand. Since the vessels take 2 days to reach this atoll, it has to start sailing before you arrive so that you wouldn't lose time and your local air tickets needs prior reservation due to a high local demand.

This opportunity is only for professional surf groups and it will be too costly to arrange a trip for a single person. Interested parties can email us at holidays@impex.com.mv

We will be posting a map of this atoll very soon.
