There's a remote island in the far south of the Maldives. It's not on the tourist maps. It's not on the Instagram reels. It's not on any surf travel itinerary you've ever seen.

To get there, you fly 1.5 hours on a small domestic flight from Male - deep into the southern atolls - and you arrive somewhere that feels like it exists outside of time.

Near this island, there are four surf breaks. Uncrowded. Not private, but these are waves that most surfers will never know about, let alone surf.

On most days, we'll be the only people in the water. There are no surf camps here. No boat trip circuit. No crowds. Just a handful of local surfers and, occasionally, a guest or two from a nearby resort.

We've secured (and have exclusive use of) the only operational guesthouse on the island for our tiny group. You won't be sharing this experience with strangers.

Who this is for

This trip is for confident surfers who already know their way around a lineup and a reef break. You don't need to be advanced. You need to be comfortable paddling out, catching a wave, and know how to interact in a line up.

You're not looking for a guided surf holiday.

You're looking for uncrowded waves, professional coaching that actually sees what you're doing wrong, and an experience that feels nothing like anything else on the market.

If you've done the safari trip circuit, or the surf camps, and came home feeling like you surfed crowded lineups with a surf guide instead of a coach - this is the correction.

What's included

7 nights on a remote island in the southern Maldives, and 8 days of professional surf coaching. Return domestic flights from Male. Daily surf sessions across four breaks, accessed by private speedboat. Andrew's signature in-water coaching and video analysis. All meals. Surf photography and video package. Snorkelling excursions in reefs that have barely been explored.

One thing worth knowing: this is a local island, not a resort. The Maldives is a Muslim country, and on local islands, alcohol is not available and bikinis are worn only in a designated area. This is real culture, not a resort bubble. Andrew and Eleonora love this about it - and so do the surfers who travel with them.

The small print that makes the difference

Domestic flights in the Maldives don't allow surfboards. That's the rule for everyone - travel agencies, tour operators, individual surfers.

We have a different arrangement.

Through partnerships we've built over years of working in Maldivian tourism, our guests are permitted to transport their boards on these flights. This is not something you can book elsewhere. It's access that exists because of who we work with and how long we've been doing this.

You bring your board. We handle the rest.
