Mikel Aguirre | Last Minute Trip to the Maldives

12 September, 2023

¨Our goal was to get the best possible waves during the maximum possible days, but without a destination planned.¨

After spending close to two weeks poring over maps and forecasts, we finally began to see some promising patterns in wind and swell directions, particularly in the Southern Maldives region. It was a stroke of luck that we chose this as our destination. During our time there, the waves were consistently impressive, providing us with perfect surfing conditions each day.

The best part about surfing in the Maldives is that you can enjoy it almost all year round. The weather is usually warm and sunny, making it even more fun to catch waves. One thing that makes surfing in the Maldives special is the scenery. Imagine riding waves surrounded by crystal clear blue water and white sandy beaches, it’s like a dream come true. Besides, there are lots of surfing spots scattered across the different islands, so you’ll never run out of new waves to try. Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, the Maldives has something for everyone when it comes to surfing fun!

“Our trip to the Southern Maldives gave us amazing waves and unforgettable moments. It truly made us love surfing even more. Leaving this beautiful place is hard, but we know we’ll be back. There’s still so much to explore! Until next time, Maldives, we’ll keep you in our hearts.”
