The Maldives is the ideal destination in which to learn how to surf, and Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort offers the complete experience with accommodation, dining, spa recovery, and surf lessons by on-site Tropicsurf.
The Maldives is a surfer’s dream, with year-round swells, balmy temperatures, and the most stunning of backdrops. Beginners will find the calm and shallow lagoons that surround its 1,200 islands ideal to master skills in.
The lagoon at Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort is particularly stunning, and best of all has surfable waves just beyond the house reef: further sites can be reached within 30 minutes by speedboat. Surf lessons and expeditions are led by the most trusted name in luxury surfing – Tropicsurf – based on the island and staffed by gurus from the world’s leading surf destinations.
The resort’s Ultimate Surf Break package includes everything needed to surf and recover in style. Day One consists of an introductory surf session in the lagoon to learn about safety, and practice take-off and board control. The next day, the open ocean is the playground, with a half-day of coaching in the water and the thrill of riding the waves. All lessons include complimentary use of a Firewire board beloved by the pros.
Guests return to luxurious comfort on the island, with accommodation for two in a beach or overwater villa. Half-board dining privileges include a breakfast buffet at Fushi Café to fuel the body, and a choice of restaurants for dinner, including seafood and steak at Sea. Fire.
