CENTRAL ATOLLS
Maldives
A 140 km boat ride south of the more accessible (and crowded) North Male Atolls you will find an endless amount of reef breaks with consistent conditions for intermediates.
TRIPS IN APRIL,
JULY AND OCTOBER
Shoulders season is perfect for intermediates. With less abundant big swells (and weather), medium-sized waves are as abundant and perfect as you could ask for.

Central Atolls, Maldives
In order to get to the boat you will have to fly to Male, Maldives.
To get on the boat on time and leave to the Central Atolls on time, you will need to be in Malé before 12pm on arrival day. For the return you need to book a flight after 1pm on departure day.
If you would like to arrive and depart a few days earlier/later to be able to settle in before the trip and chill down after, we recommend you to stay either in Himmafushi or Thulushdoo: both are close to Male (30min speed boat) and have quality surfing spots within walking distance!
Once you booked the surf trip, we will keep updated on the WhatsApp group chat!
If you need help or have any other questions just let us know.
The Maldives surf season goes from April to October. Waves are incredibly consistent and while in Summer it often gets big and sometimes a bit wet, the shoulder season (October - November and March - May) brings good weather and more playful conditions for the intermediate surfer.
Since the Central Atolls take longer to reach, fewer boats operate in the area compared to the more crowded Male Atolls – which translates to fewer surfers in the line-up.
Since most surfers heading to the Central Atolls are usually interested in more advanced waves, this often leaves other more intermediate spots (but still world-class) completely empty. This is the perfect recipe for a week of scoring incredible waves and improving your surfing skills.
