Malik’s

Malik’s is that incredible wave that doesn’t always want to cooperate and located on the inhabited island of Hirilandhoo. Malik’s has its good days and it has its bad days. It is not so much the tide as it is the swell and wind direction. Malik’s loves a south to southwest swell and easterly winds, the combination of the two being the trick to finding Malik’s on a good day—make that potentially incredible day. A cooperating Malik’s means a fast lefthander that can range anywhere from 3-10 feet, with nearly perfect Maldivian barrels — a must ride wave during your boat trip in the central atolls.

If  you are not enough people to charter a boat  in this region (usually 8 people), make sure to visit our shared charters page to check if there is an open cruise to join. Fianally remember that the best time to surf in the central atolls is between May and October during the South-West monsoon.
