SURFING IN MALDIVES
Surf monsoon is from late February to mid November, with the best waves coming in during March to May and then again in September till the end of November. Surfers are advised to bring all their equipment with them, as there are very few good surf equipment available.
The two principal surfing Maldives areas include North Male Atoll and Outer Atolls. You must visit North Male Atoll during April to October and the Outer Atolls during February to April.
The surfing equipments include a normal short board and a mid-range gun. Remember to take a vest or long-sleeved rash guard for protection against the sun. Booties are a necessity especially for the sharp corals found all over the atolls.
