Great Value Small Maldivian Charter!

Kefi is a great value, smaller charter for up to 10 persons. Coming in at 20m in length and 6.2m in width, Kefi is a well-appointed charter for its size. With trips starting from just 6 guests, Kefi is capable of cruising Male Atoll and Central Atolls.

Designed and built with traditional Maldivian craftsmanship, Kefi is the perfect choice for smaller groups looking for a good value charter with air conditioning!

The Boat

Kefi is a 20m long and 6.2m wide surf charter, capable of cruising in North/South Male and the Central Atolls in the Maldives. The charter comes with a dinghy and dhoni as standard, perfect for when groups would like to surf different waves!

The charter has a small bar area with a table and bench chairs set outside and equipped with a TV. The main dining area is set outside on the mid-deck with a long table bench with chairs and shade for guests to have well-deserved meals during cruising. Ample spaces are available with sun beds to relax and unwind under the shade or open on mid-deck or top deck.

With space for up to 10 travelers, the Kefi offers 5 comfortable and well-appointed guest cabins. The team that manages the charter has years of experience running charters and will make sure you have an amazing trip onboard!

The Surf

The Maldives is renowned worldwide for its perfect tropical surf. Kefi Surf Charter can be chartered to any area in the Maldives and we can arrange routes in North/South Male, Meemu, and the Central Atolls. Surf varies greatly depending on the season, so we can always advise you on the best area!

North Male offers the most famous waves in the Maldives and is the classic surf area. For those seeking more adventure and less crowded waves, then we would recommend the Central Atolls. These more remote regions are generally quieter with amazing waves on offer!

You can learn more about the types of charter and routes here and to read more about seasons and regions, check out our guide here! Our Expert Surf Travel Team is always here for advice on the best route for your trip.

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!
