Day 1:
JOIN THE CRUISE AND VISIT SOUTH MALE’ ATOLL
Welcome at Male airport and onboard the Gahaa dhoni (check-in time is 12.00 pm).
Typical maldivian boat Gahaa is the perfect option for families and large groups looking to enjoy the seas for a few days: five comfortable cabins, a spacious dining area, and a well-stocked bar make her one of our most popular safaris, with repeat clients coming back to the comfort and familiarity of Gahaa every season. One cabin with double size bed & single bunk bed, four cabins with double size bunk bed (two with attached toilets & shower), and two common toilets with shower. Accommodate minimum 4 persons up to 08 maximum.
After settling into your cabins, the captain or one of our crew members will go through all the safety aspects of the tour. Cruise South from the airport and head to South Male’ surf spots. It will take about 2 hours to reach the first break a long left-hander called Tucky Joes which breaks on an open reef with no shelter from any winds. If you are lucky it might be offshore and you could straight away jump in and enjoy this break. If not we continue 15 to 30 more minutes and reach a righthander called Quarters breaking off an Island nearby. This break is preferred by long-boarders and beginners as the peak of this wave breaks very softly. Enjoy this surf for the day.
Night anchor at Gulhi Lagoon.

After lunchtime across the channel about 10 minutes away two right-handers are breaking off on the reef of a local island called Mulah. The outside section is a very barreling wave and it breaks on a shallow reef. The inside section is similar but safer than the outside section. How far the wave breaks out depends on the swell. Surf until 5 pm and make your way to anchor the boat for the night to Muli lagoon which is about 45 minutes away.
