Surfing

Champion surfers flock to the Maldives during the summer months (May to September) when the winds pick up and the swells in certain lagoons create legendary breaks. Two of the resorts located near good breaks, the Four Seasons Kuda Huraa and Anantara Dhigu, are home to outposts of the first-class Australian surf school Tropic Surf. Their excellent staff have perfected teaching techniques that are guaranteed to get beginners riding waves in one or two sessions. They are also happy to take advanced surfers out in search of the best waves. And for really avid surfers, Tropic Surf offers cruises around the Maldives, including a number of weeks on the Four Seasons Explorer.
