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.

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.
