Raja Ombak
Luxury surf charter in the Mentawai Islands, Indonesia.
A bespoke charter vessel built for exploring the world‑class waves of the Mentawai, Telo and Banyak Islands off West Sumatra. With an easygoing vibe, spacious social areas, and versatile surf access, Raja Ombak combines authentic Indonesian cruising with unforgettable sessions in some of the planet’s most coveted lineups.
Whether you’re chasing long reef walls, barrel‑rich passes or tropical island vibes, this charter gives you the freedom to follow swell, dodge crowds and immerse yourself in remote, sun‑drenched surf territory from dawn patrol to evening dinner.
The Boat
Raja Ombak is a purpose‑built 25‑metre charter vessel, crafted in 2019 by skilled Indonesian shipbuilders with both surfers and divers in mind. The design prioritises space, comfort and flow, with multiple decks that offer shaded lounge areas, sun spaces, and expansive ocean views – ideal for relaxing between sessions or planning the next spot.
Below deck, the vessel features a mix of private double cabins and shared cabins, all with ensuite bathrooms and air‑conditioning. The main deck’s dining area includes a large communal table, TV, and entertainment systems, while the top deck’s outdoor lounge invites you to unwind under the sun or gaze at stars after dark.
The Surf
Operating in the Mentawai Islands – one of Indonesia’s most legendary surf regions – Raja Ombak places you right where powerful, hollow reef breaks and long peeling walls define the lineups. The experienced onboard guides are familiar with both world‑famous spots and lesser‑known gems, helping you target waves that match your group’s skill level and the current conditions.
Classic Mentawai breaks such as E‑Bay, Bank‑Vaults, HT’s, Macaronis, Greenbush, Nokandui, Rifles and The Hole offer intense barrel sections and long rides for advanced surfers, while a wide selection of intermediate‑friendly peaks like Pit Stops, Burger World, Baby Kandui and Sand Bars make the region accessible for progressing riders.
Being on a charter means flexibility – each day is shaped by swell direction, tide, and wind, and the crew will help you chase the best conditions possible throughout your trip. For more information, dive into AWAVE Travels’ Ultimate Guide to the Mentawai Islands.
Accommodation
Raja Ombak comfortably sleeps guests across a combination of 6 spacious private and shared cabins, each with an ensuite bathroom and air-conditioning. The cabin layout is designed for comfort and sociability, ensuring everyone has personal space to rest after big surf days without sacrificing the communal energy that makes live‑aboard trips unforgettable.
Above deck, there’s room to chill and socialise – shaded seating, bean bags, sun decks and seating zones give you plenty of places to stretch out, watch the horizon, plan the next session, or simply relax with a book and tropical breeze.
Food
Meals aboard Raja Ombak are served buffet‑style throughout the day, blending Indonesian classics with Western favourites to keep you fuelled for surf, sun and exploration. Snacks are available between sessions, and dietary needs can be accommodated with advance notice, so everyone stays energised and ready for waves.
Water, tea, coffee, and soft drinks are included in your package, along with an allowance of beers – so you can always enjoy a cold drink after sunset over the Indian Ocean!
