The Mentawai Waves

Do we really need to tell you that the Mentawai Islands are one of the world’s most consistent surf destinations?
If you surf, you already know that!
The Mentawais are directly exposed to the Indian Ocean “roaring forties” swell. From April to October, surfers from intermediate to advanced level, will find the best surf experience of their lives.
Moreover, the potential for fishing, snorkelling and ecotourism is quite remarkable. Our sister company Mentawai Adventure organizes a wide range of easy treks and activities in these off-the-beaten-track islands, allowing you some extras or your friend to enjoy a trek while you surf.

What Nick Carrol says about our waves:
" Suddenly we were drifting into something straight out of the old Hippie Surf Art manuals of the early 1970s: a tropical white sand beach; a tiny wood-hut village among the palms; sun rising over the sea; perfectly formed surf curling itself around a coral reef.
" The waves aren't the dramatic, over-powered explosions of winter Hawaii, or the almost supernatural, curving menace of southwest Tahiti. They're silky, perfectly formed and balanced. They swing among the islands in a refracted dance around deepwater reefs and tidal channels, and bend into quick, delicate shapes. The water is 28ºC. It's probably the best surf in the world.
