Surf When It’s Best

Two boat trips a day

We typically run two boat trips daily, adjusting to swell, wind, and tides to score the best waves. Between sessions, we return to camp to rest and refuel before heading back out.

A Season for Every Surfer

Find Your Perfect Mentawai Moment

The Mentawai Islands deliver world-class surf year round, with each season offering its own style. Peak months during the dry season (June–August) bring powerful swells and heavy, challenging conditions for those looking to charge, shoulder seasons (March–June & September–November) balance quality waves with fewer crowds, and the fun season (December–February, wet season) delivers smaller, playful sessions in an easygoing island atmosphere.
