Mentawai Islands

The Mentawai Islands are one of the most sought-after surf destinations in the world, offering a remote, wave-rich paradise in the heart of Indonesia. A Mentawai surf trip promises consistency, variety and quality, with world-class reef breaks scattered across the island chain—from the hollow perfection of Rifles and Bankvaults to the playful walls of Pitstops and Beng Beng. With year-round swell and prime conditions from March to October, the Mentawai Islands surf season draws experienced surfers chasing some of the best waves on the planet.

World Surfaris partners with the region’s most trusted resorts and charter operators, making it easy to tailor your Mentawai surf experience to match your style, budget and wave preferences. Land-based options like Kingfisher, Macaronis, Awera Surf Resort and Villa Mentawai offer consistent access to quality waves with the comfort of premium amenities. For those wanting to chase swell across the archipelago, surf charters like Star Koat 2, Nomad Charters, Huey and Seriti provide the ultimate freedom and flexibility.

Booking through World Surfaris takes the stress out of logistics and maximises your wave count – backed by decades of local knowledge and personalised advice from surfers who’ve been there.
