Surf throughout the Maldives and enjoy the exquisite beauty of the atolls cruising aboard the well-appointed M.V. Dhinasha. This 28m long vessel with its 8 very comfortable cabins offers everything a true adventurer would yearn for. The Dhinasha crew will travel to the far ends of the Maldives in search of those perfect waves.
The crew on Dhinasha are all about surf with the operator being the Maldivian bodyboard champion and they are well versed with local knowledge of their home breaks. Whether you are a professional, an intermediate or a beginner, a surfing holiday in the Maldives aboard the Dhinasha surfari yacht will allow you to experience the uncanny beauty of perfect waves breaking over beautifully coloured reefs.
Traveling on-board Dhinasha is certainly the best way to see the Maldives and will allow you more surf time to follow the swells to some of the more famous Maldivian breaks as well as discovering some of the more secluded locations. Dhinasha's crew aim to provide you with an exciting yet relaxing surf adventure, where you are sure to catch some of the best waves on offer.
The beauty of Dhinasha is not only the luxuriousness of the vessel but the fact that they will travel on smaller numbers and extend the trips to the far ends of the Maldivian Atolls. So, if you want a customised charter with limited numbers, going to the southern or central atolls, then STC can arrange it for you. Similarly, if you have a group of up to 12 STC can organise a discounted rate. Either way it is a magic way to see the beautiful and exquiste Maldives.
Dhinasha will travel on a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 12 guests at anyone time. Ask us for a quote based on the size of your group and the area you wish to travel and we will package up that surfing adventure of a lifetime.
