The Republic of the Maldives or Maldives is an island nation, consisting of twenty six atolls. These coral islands of superb natural beauty lie in the Indian Ocean and are considered part of Southern Asia. Maldives enjoy a tropical climate, with temperatures around 30 °C/86 °F all year round. However, there is a rainy season, the southwest monsoon that lasts from May till November and brings strong winds and storms. Maldives is an idyllic paradise that welcomes visitors from all over the world, promising unforgettable holiday experiences!
Maldives is fast becoming a popular surf destination, as it provides long, fun waves and big chances of barrels. The majority of the sites are accessible only by boat, but most of them are close to each other, so it is easy to find excellent surf breaks with no crowd in the water. Ninja’s or Piddlies is situated on the North Male atoll and it is great for novice surfers and long-boarders.
It also lies next to Lohi’s surf site, but Ninja’s provides right hand waves. It is an exposed reef break that offers regional classic waves. The swell size starts working at less than 1 m/3 ft and holds up to 4 m/12 ft. The optimum surf season is during spring months. In addition, the best tide position is all tides and it works well with north and northwest winds. Furthermore, the ideal swell direction is from the south and southeast. At summer the wind blows onshore 57%, at autumn it blows 36%, at winter 20% and at spring 44%.
Bear in mind that specialized surf companies organize boat trips in the area, allowing surfers to perform their favorite sport and enjoy different surf breaks on the same day. Finally, be careful of dead coral. So, if you want to become the master of waves, visit Ninja’s as soon as possible and experience the best surfing!!
