& Arrival
The breaks at Huvadhoo Atoll work with a wider range of swell and wind conditions and are not yet so crowded. An insider tip!
Interesting spots/trails
The Huvadhoo Atoll in the Maldives is best known for Beacons, Castaways and Tiger Stripes. Beacons and Tiger Stripes are considered two of the strongest waves in the Maldives, which quickly hit a lined and shallow reef - a typical feature of the surf spots in the south.
Tiger Stripes, sometimes referred to as Rockets, is an open lefthander that isn't as hollow as some of the other waves nearby, but it makes up for that with long and consistent carving walls that are suitable for a variety of surfers and fun in a variety of conditions.
Love Charms is one of the few waves in Huvadhoo that completely transforms depending on the tide and the size of the swell. At lower tide and smaller swell, Love Charms breaks into two different sections - this is probably the best case. With larger swells and higher tides, the waves combine to form a long, hollow wall that can provide an incredibly long and hollow ride.
Booga Reef, called Two Ways because it breaks left and right, is located on the other side of the pass from Five Islands. Similar to Sultans and Honky's in North Male Atoll, Two Ways (as the name suggests) offers two incredible waves breaking in two different directions from the same southern point of the island. Two Ways is a set-up that surfers have dreamed of for years, but never thought possible.
Similar to Blue Bowls, Five Islands is a long right that is well protected from south to southwest winds. Five Islands is more "freight train" than Blue Bowls. The wave breaks in a number of different sections and needs a good southerly wind to combine all the sections, but when it does, it creates one of the longest and cleanest barrel rides in the southern atolls.
Blue Bowls, also known as Voodoos, is a very good right-hand wave that is unusually well protected from onshore winds due to its location in the pass between Castaways and Five Islands. This sheltered peak is more of a point-style wave, gently winding around the point before opening into a series of bowls (hence the name). The sections keep transitioning into wide and open faces, resulting in a nice long ride that is suitable for shortboard shredders, but also smooth enough for funboards and longboards.
Beacons is an exposed reef break, a right-hand wave that is both violent and inconsistent. It consistently offers waves, but is only surfable on a clean southwest swell. Swells from all other directions almost always result in straight closeouts on an unfriendly and unforgiving coral reef.
