reported that, like the last couple years, the crowds stayed pretty
quiet up until the end of June, and even though the typical sum We’re turning the corner into that magic quiet time that we really love, and we still have some availability to book trips that still have quality waves with a fraction of the crowds. So, be sure to check our schedule page and contact us if you have any questions. And
now to our company spiel…
We
are the sole operators of three charter boats: Southern
Cross, Budyadahri, and Mikumba.
All our boats are built in a traditional Indonesian style, which adds
to the authenticity of your adventure. But they are also large and
roomy, and well equipped with all the modern amenities. You'll very
comfortable and very well looked after by our crew. In addition to
our three core boats, we also help book a few trips for our mates'
boats, such as D'Bora. The crews on these
boats So,
why Sumatran Surfariis instead of other fancy power boats marketed
on websites and magazines around the world? Above all, it’s
our experience. You can’t buy experience with a flat screen
TV, imported ice cream, or the often false promotion of a 20 knot
boat. Experience is over a decade of surfing and checking the waves
more than others, knowing what happens on neap tides as compared to
springs at certain waves, knowing where the majority of boats will
head when a certain forecast comes out and heading to somewhere else
without others. Experience is understanding that even though the forecast
says one wind, the clouds and the sky are saying another, and it’s
going the extra mile to be at the right place at the crack of dawn.
And experience is knowing that most people would prefer to surf alone
at a lesser known wave, Our boats travel to two main areas: the Mentawais and Northern Sumatra. Feel free to check out our Trips page to find out a little bit more about what separates these two very different yet equally amazing areas. The page also provides a good example of what a trip might look like from start to finish. We have also recently begun exploration to areas of Southern Sumatra as well, and though we don’t want to divulge and information at this time, suffice it to say there’s more out there. There are still many secrets to be found, and we never rest on our laurels as we continually push the boundaries of exploration. Many of our trips are booked over a year in advance, so be sure to check our latest dates and prices to make sure you get the perfect slot for your dream trip.
For over 10 years we ran our operations out of the lovely and legendary Hotel Batang Arau, which sat right along the Muara River Harbor. This was our home and headquarters, and the watering hole for more captains, industry moguls, and traveling surfers than any other place in Padang. Countless stories were told and experiences were shared at the B.A., and as such we’ve become well known and well respected members of the local business and social communities. June of 2009 brought an end of an era for Sumatran Surfariis as we moved out of the Batang Arau to our new offices just a short distance away. Now that we don’t have allocate part of our time toward the entertainment and accommodation of our patrons, we can focus our entire attention on delivering our guests the best possible surf trips in Sumatra. Of course, we’ll still have beers, snacks, and a comfortable place for our guests to hang out before their trips.
This
is THE family of the Sumatran surf community. We are proud to say
that we employ an entirely local Indonesian crew of 30+. Most of our
staff lives in Padang year round, so we are here to oversee everything,
to strengthen our business relationships, manage our contacts and
inventory, and do everything necessary to constantly improve your
surf trip. We also care deeply about the local culture, and we are
constantly looking for ways to give back to the community that has
unselfishly given us so much. We were the first charter company Sumatran Surfariis has lived and grown by word of mouth, and it’s only by delivering excellent trips that we will continue to succeed in the future. Please feel free to read what some of our past customers have said about us on our Testimonials page. Also be sure to check out some of the photos from past trips, as well as some of our Skipper Stories to get a better idea of what we’re all about. We hope to share this wonderful experience with you. Please feel free to contact us for any information. Seize the day
- you won't regret it. Terima kasih!! |
