Excellent Value Surf Charter Running East of Bali!

Sri Noa Noa is one of the classic Indonesian surf charters. This well-maintained Indonesian vessel has been cruising through the archipelago chasing waves for a long time!

Sri Noa Noa offers unique and exclusive surf charters to some of the quietest waves in Indonesia. Starting trips with just 3 persons and capable of accommodating 6, the charter is perfect for small groups looking to escape the crowds!

The Boat

Sri Noa Noa is a 46ft Indonesian-built phinisi boat. This small but comfortable charter is perfect for small groups looking to explore the eastern reaches of Indonesia! The charter has 6 beds (1 queen and 5 singles), a small bathroom, and an outdoor kitchen/BBQ. The outdoor space is fitted with custom-fitted sunbeds with sun shades on the upper deck, so you have plenty of space to chill and watch the surf!

The charter has quality snorkeling gear, to take advantage of the crystal clear waters and beautiful fish. Onboard for guests is fishing gear (trolling, spinning, and spear) on board. Last but not least – our most valuable asset on board really is their experienced and friendly Indonesian crew. Captain Heri, hailing from Flores, has been sailing with Sri Noa Noa since 1995!

The Surf

Sri Noa Noa runs all of their trips in the East of Bali, covering Lombok, Sumbawa, Sumba, Savu, and Rote. These routes offer some of the quietest surf in Indonesia and some really good quality waves. Sri Noa Noa’s standard routes are:

Sumba – Mengkudu – Sumba – Surf remote Indonesia with low crowds! Stand-out waves are Millers Right and Pinnacles (great righthander).

Rote – Sumba – Surf T-Land and all of the uncrowded waves along Sumba’s Coastline

Komodo – Sumbawa – Lombok – Bali – Classic route giving you the chance to surf Lakeys, Scar Reef, Desert Point, and loads of waves in between!

I've used Awave twice ... so far. This is the second time I've used Awave for a trip to the maldives. Stayed in 2 different resorts this time. They've always been incredibly prompt at replying and handled everything for us, making sure the 2 Resorts were in touch to get us transfered half way through our trip. At one of the resorts I even bumped into Giulia and Delia who were out there surfing at the time. There's no doubt in my mind that I'll use awave again if I'm booking a surf trip

Indonesia Surf Trip/ Java/Bali/Sumba - James Colston was my representative from AWAVE - I’m an older solo surfer and James was attentive, respectful, extremely responsive from the initial planning stages all the way through the booking. And he was so patient with all my crazy questions along the way. I couldn’t have been more pleased with James’s level of service. Thank you James

Giulia was an amazing person to book with. I was overwhelmed with choices initially, but AWAVE knew their stuff and helped me with my options and even suggested delaying my trip so I could go to a certain hotel which ended up being the best decision I made all year.

Giulia and James were always on line to answer any question or to give an advice. The Ayada resort is perfect both for families or for couples. We did not have waves as the season goes from April to September, but there are plenty options to have fun and good times. Highly recommended both Awave and Ayada.

The AWAVE team are knowledgable and helpful. Giulia is a very helpful and patient person to deal with, and do not worry, you can trust her. I had to delay my trip to Morocco due to unforeseen circumstances and Giulia was very understanding. I have just returned from having a fantastic week at Amouage in Taghazout. Thanks AWAVE!

Awesome holiday to Hudhuranfushi. Giulia was very helpful and quick to respond and overall we were very impressed with Awave Travel.
Lohi's is a private, on site, awesome left hander that just kept giving. Also had options of 2 daily surf boat trips that went to other local breaks such as Sultans, Ninja's, Cokes, Jails. The surf team are amazing and we scored great waves the whole time we were there.
Stayed in a Sunset family beach villa which was perfect for a family of 4, then upgraded for the last 3 nights to Ocean Villas, both great for different reasons!
Island staff are so helpful and welcoming, and there's a good variety of food options available. Lots of other things to do such as paddleboarding, jet ski-ing, spa treatments, yoga and amazing snorkelling - with sharks, turtles and rays! We also hired bikes to get around and do morning surf checks!
An amazing trip, thank you Awave and Hudhuranfushi!

We had an amazing time on the Mentawai islands booked through Awave Travel.
Giulia was very helpful and available at all times during the booking process. And we had the best time on the Mentawais on the Maki Boat. The staff were amazing. Raul the surf guide was very helpful, friendly and coached us on the waves. Kaique the photographer produced top quality pictures and videos from the water, boat and drone.
Overall very happy and would highly recommend it.

We charted Seafarer for a 10 day trip in the Maldives. We booked with AWAVE about 12 months before. James was super helpful, really responsive and just easy to deal with. We even made a very last minute change to go to the central atolls which he arranged pretty much straight away. The trip itself was unreal, great surf, amazing wildlife and scenery. If you’re thinking about a surf charter, do it and book through these guys!
