Mentawai Surf offers a surf experience that you will never forget, thanks to the quality of our surf guides.All born in the area, they learned to surf with the first pioneers who dared venture there, 10 years ago.They have worked as independent guides or onboard the charter boats coming from Sumatra.They know all the best spots, according to swell, tide and winds. With them, you will surf far from the crowds (and ‘crowds’ is anyway something of an overstatement…) in a radius of 30 miles from our resort; an area
that includes 21 of the most consistent waves in the world, plus the secret ones never visited by charter boats...
