THE SURF
RISK AND REWARD IN THE REMOTE BAA ATOLL
Soneva Fushi offers access to dozens of waves within the Baa Atoll, suitable for all levels depending on the conditions. This area is high risk, high reward, with access to the most remote waves in the Maldives. The prime surf season runs from June to September, offering the most consistent swell and your best chances, but it’s still more of a dice roll than elsewhere in the Maldives. However, if the conditions line up, you are in for the trip of a lifetime with perfect reef breaks and no one around. Experienced surf guides and coaches are on hand to help with everything. Experience truly remote surfing and empty lineups in the Maldives!
