So it gets good then. :shock: Love the music.

We used Atoll Travel for our recent trip and were more than happy with the service.

there's also hudhuranfushi resort just south of pasta point. has it's own left hander right out the front exclusive to resort guests (maybe not so good for the locals).

stayed there over easter. surfer bookings are though the perfect wave however they restrict surfer numbers to guarantee spaces on the boats.

you can however book through non-surfing agents or directly with the resort as a non surfer and just pay per surf trip once you're there (subject to spaces on the boat) which is what i did as perfect wave spot were all full - never had any trouble getting a spot on the boats.

there's a calm lagoon out the back for the family, or as you say you can also treat them to a few nights at kandooma (also through perfect wave).
