Surf Remote Indonesia in Comfort and Style

Tiger Blue is a unique, truly luxury Indonesian phinisi boat. This yacht has been made specifically for chartering the archipelago and is one of the most luxurious offerings in the country. Based primarily in the diving haven of Raja Ampat, Tiger Blue can be chartered to surf the remote waves of West Papua and North Malukus.

Experience a once in a lifetime experience in true remote Indonesia, exploring and surfing some of the most remote waves in the country!

The Boat

Tiger Blue is a 112ft long traditional Indonesian phinisi boat, constructed in North Sulawesi in 2008. The charter has been fitted out to the highest standard offering incredibly comfortable and luxurious accommodation for up to 12 guests.

With a total of 5 cabins, the charter is well sized to receive families and groups of friends alike. The charter offers all guests plenty of space to relax and unwind in-between surfs full diving equipment to explore the world-famous reefs, and sumptuous cuisine!

The Surf

Tiger Blue offers the chance to surf some of the most remote surf in all of Indonesia. West Papua is one of the last regions that is still relatively untouched by mass surf tourism due to the difficulty of access and higher prices on charters running in the area.

This means that for the adventurous few that venture into the region, uncrowded and sometimes, unnamed spots await! This is a true surf adventure for those lucky enough to be able to make the trip.

The charter can also run a trip to the North Maluku islands, another region rarely surfed with outstanding natural beauty!

Why We Love Tiger Blue

One of the most luxurious charter operations in Indonesia. High-end charters in Remote Indo.

Families and groups of friends love Tiger Blue. It is the perfect boat for exploring the beauty of Eastern Indonesia.

The option to be chartered to the most remote and untouched locations. Experience surfing where very few others have!

The dining area is well proportioned and can seat all guests for meals. The inside of the boat has been tastefully decorated and well designed. Up on deck, you’ll find a few areas to sit and relax and loads of space to store your boards and equipment!

Food

The team onboard Tiger Blue makes sure that all meals are beautifully prepared and made with fresh and wholesome ingredients. The charter serves a mix of Asian and Western menus, freshly prepared by the on-board chef with meals served up at the large dining table on the main deck, except when we head to a nearby island for a beach BBQ. the charter strives to keep their food miles as low as possible and can cater for most dietary requirements and, with advance notice, will aim to source any preferred items.

My wife and I booked an 8 day surf charter on the Gahaa with a dedicated surf guide Moussa who was worth his weight in gold knowing what breaks would be firing and his knowledge of marine life and Maldivian environment enlightening for my wife and I. From the initial booking and contact Guilia at AWAVE made the whole process seamless communication was excellent. I have traveled extensively and surfed many parts of the world this trip truly exceeded my expectations the crew were incredible taking us to excellent surf and snorkeling locations. The boat itself is a converted fishing Dohni that exudes old world charm is clean and meticulously cared for. The meals prepared for us were nothing short of exceptional excellent variety and plenty of it a mix of western and Maldivian fare. We are definitely coming back and certainly using AWAVE again! Thank you Giulia and Moussa our trusted surf guide who gave us incredible insights into Maldivian culture.

Absolutely Recommended. Giulia and James are top professionals: I will be using Awave for all my future surf trips. I have been surfing for 30 years and travelled the world so I have dealt with a lot of agents. Awave is in the top spot as far as I am concerned. I spent 10 days with them on a boat trip in Maldivesโ€™ central atolls: not only their recommendations were spot on but being a boutique agency they tailor the surf experience to the very specific needs. They are surfers (real chargers) and know personally each spot and surf operator they recommend (wtether it is a guest house or a resort or a boat).

Tons of activities on island to enjoy, not just the surf!! Sailing, snorkelling, paddle boards, just to name some!

Trip of a lifetime. First and foremost I'd like to thank James Colston from Awave Travel, for assisting me in every which way to help book one of the most memorable experiences I've had in my life. He was extremely responsive and answered every single question I had, even the dumb ones haha. As for AYADA, holy dooly, that place is paradise! Absolutely breathtaking, I couldn't believe I was actually walking around such a beautiful island! Big love to the staff at Magu Restaurant, seeing as how I ate there pretty much everyday, they were amazing! Very switched on and quick off the mark to help with anything that was needed. A special mention to Dhaboa and the captain who took me out surfing! I cannot speak highly enough about their friendly, helpful and straight up on point expertise. With Dhaboa picking the spots to surf and tips on where to sit to catch the best waves on the day, to the wonderful captain himself, filming and sending me videos of the waves I caught.
Absolute legends! Made my surf trip! Best holiday I've ever been on to this date.

Reliable travel agency to book a surf trip - Both Giulia and James were very reactive and adivsed on the best options. In our case we made a boat trip in Maldives. It is the second time we use Awave Travel to do a surftrip to Maldives and we have had a very good experience in both cases. They are a reliable and trustworthy travel agency, I highly recommend them.
