Safety First
Before diving into the waves (or any other sport for that matter), you should always prioritise safety above everything else. Equip yourself with the proper gear, including a well-fitted leash and a board suitable for beginners. Foam longboards or soft-top surfboards would be the perfect choice when you learn to surf.
Understanding the basics of ocean safety is also crucial, and if you’re a weak swimmer, it’d be better to train your fundamentals first before you attempt to surf. At the very least, you should know how to float before
New to surfing? Consider taking a beginner’s surf lesson. Our world-class resorts in the Maldives, Kani and the Finolhu Villas, offer comprehensive surf training sessions to ensure you’re well-prepared for the challenges of the vast, open seas.
