Surfing

Just off the edge of Niyama’s Play Island you’ll find Vodi, a powerful and sometimes hollow left hander private wave. Off to the west and five minutes away by speedboat, Kasabu is a fun and hollow right hander wave. You can explore and surf other waves around Niyama under different conditions. Niyama’s surf guides keep an eye on the conditions and will recommend the time and place to surf to get the most out of your surfing holiday. If Vodi is breaking well, it’s a simple paddle out. If conditions are better for another spot – they will let you know.

Niyama you can surf when you want, and to enjoy other breaks, you can pre-book surf transfers or pay as you use depending on conditions.
