SURF
We are located in Thaa Atoll, in the wave rich central atolls of Maldives.
Think warm turquoise water, palm-fringed channels and a hand-picked selection of right- and left-handers that peel like clockwork.
Veymandoo Island (Thaa, Central Maldives) sits perfectly in the swell window from the southern Indian Ocean, yet it escapes the crowds that haunt the Malé atolls.
From March to October our little slice of paradise lights up with playful, chest- to overhead-high waves that suit beginner and progressing intermediate surfers down to the ground — and when a solid pulse arrives the points step up for barrel-hungry chargers.

beginners to intermediates
The atoll we are lucky to be located in is a surfers paradise.
We’re one of the rare surf spots in the Maldives that welcomes beginners all year round – with multiple breaks perfectly suited for both beginners and more advanced surfers, there’s something here for every level, every day.
Our Breaks
While the home spots in our island works consistently throughout the surfing season, if you’re up for exploring and a bit of adventure, there are many other breaks in the central atolls. Thaa and Laamu Atolls in the central region have been increasing in popularity as surfers look to escape the northern crowds.
Although the central atolls don’t get the same kind of size as the Male Atolls, its breaks continue the Maldivian tradition of providing consistent surf and pristine barrels. Medium-sized waves are as abundant and perfect as you could ask for.
Adonis (Right) – Our home break. Long, playful wall with occasional barrel sections. Perfect for daily surfs and progression.
Mikado Outside (Right) – The punchiest wave in the area. Fast, powerful, and a bit heavier. For confident surfers.
Mikado Inside (Right) – Super fun and user-friendly. Clean lines, mellow barrels, ideal for progressing.
Finimas (Left) – Quick and hollow. A go-to for left lovers chasing tubes on the right tide.
Fonadoo Right (Right) – Easy-going and cruisy. Long mellow walls, perfect for carves and longboards.
