Surfing, MALDIVES
Airing Date: Apr 3rd, 2006
About 400 miles southwest of Sri Lanka are the Maldives, a large group of islands that have become a dream destination for many holidaymakers.
Tropicsurf locations and seasons are chosen around maximum consistency and minimum crowds. Don't worry - crowd avoidance is their priority too, so don't be surprised to be surfing waves all on your lonesome...
Unfortunately that 'pot of gold' is getting harder to find, but every decision your guides make is based around finding quality waves with the least amount of competition.
Where possible, Tropicsurf locations are chosen to offer waves for a variety of abilities - allowing the entire family or non-surfer to share the fun times with you. Although the trip priorities do focus around surfing, Tropicsurf is committed to ensuring non-surfers can enjoy the vacation too.
Firstly their upmarket boats with private cabins, ensuite bathrooms and hot showers appeal to non-surfing friends or partners. There is plenty of time for relaxing, reading or sunbathing. Both surfers and non-surfers alike enjoy special sights and cultural experiences because Tropicsurf journey further a field to unspoilt areas that reveal the real Maldives - far from the resorts and tourism.
