| Boat Description |
Cosi is a normal sized charter boat but perfect for smaller groups as she will go with minimum 4 passengers. If you’ve ever thought about chartering off into the middle of the spectacular Maldivian atolls with just you & your partner for that romantic getaway or honeymoon, 2 passengers can take it by paying the 4 passenger price – a marvelous extravagance for the price of a normal hotel

| Surf Breaks |
From the harbour near the airport the surf points of Nth and Sth Male Atolls are very close. 30 minutes to the north, Jailbreaks, Honkys and Sultans and another 30 minutes on to Cokes and Chickens. These are the most popular points of Nth Male. South Male Atoll surfing points are about the same travelling time to the south.
The surf points are all quality breaks over coral reef. They all hold surf up to 8 ft and range in length from 100 mtr to 250 mtr rides. The wind during the surfing season, which is from May to October, is consistently from the west and the swell is always between 2 ft and 8 ft. The best conditions are with a Sth East swell and a light west wind.
During the day cruising between surf points is no problem. The captains endeavour to anchor close to the surf points for guests to view the surf when not in the water. All the surf points break on the reefs which surround the islands. Due to the close proximity of the islands it is always possible to go ashore at anytime. At 5.30 pm the safari boat is shifted from it’s anchor in the channel to the nearby harbour. These harbour anchorages are only 5 minutes away from the channel anchorage. Every morning at 6 am the boat is shifted back to the channel close to surf points. All of the channel passes have two surfing points, a left on one side of the channel and a right on the other. The channels are about 4-500 mtrs wide.
All safaris are totally flexible. The crew and guides are there to go when and where you would like within North and South Male. The boat can also move to other atolls such as the Central or Southern (Outer) Atolls if guest are happy to pay a nominal fuel surcharge. |
