The Charter

A CLASSIC SMALL GROUP SURF CHARTER

The Gahaa is a simple and affordable surf charter, purpose-built for small groups looking to chase waves across the Maldives. With trips starting from just four guests and space for up to eight, it is one of the best, budget, small-group options available. If you are after a private boat experience with your closest friends, without the high price tag, this is one of the top picks in the Maldives. Gahaa offers comfort, local knowledge, and the freedom to explore remote breaks at your own pace.

Accommodation

COZY CABINS AND SIMPLE COMFORTS

Gahaa has four cabins in total. Three feature ensuite bathrooms with bunk beds and one includes bunk beds with access to a shared toilet. Fan-cooled and modestly styled, the cabins offer just what you need to rest and recharge between sessions. The layout is ideal for close-knit groups looking to keep things simple and share an authentic boat experience. A shaded deck and relaxed dining area complete the setup, giving you space to unwind and enjoy the view.
