Surf in Morocco with AWAVE
We spent amazing days in Morocco in Amouage. Was an amazing stay and the full surf package offered by AWAVE was great.
All the people were very nice and coaches were amazing. Booking was very smooth, answered all my questions and they took care of everything.
I took the coaching package and had a great time and learning. The teacher was great, very patient and explained everything very nice and calm. Felt safe all the time and had a lot of fun as well.
My boyfriend had the guiding package and he also had a great time. He was always taken to the spots that fitted his level and enjoyed the full when conditions were nice.

David's 50th @ Hudhuranfushi
8 of us stayed at Hudhuranfushi for my 50th birthday celebration. The resort and services were amazing. James and the team at AWAVE stayed in contact from the beginning to end to ensure we had everything we needed. Great experience. Definitely looking forward to booking our next trip with AWAVE in the near future.

Ayada in Maldives - Epic
We stayed at Ayada in Maldives and I can't be more complimentary of AWAVE! Awesome and patient advise over whatsapp on which resort to go to with extremely details local knowledge on surf conditions, wave spots, resort quality, which atolls to go to, etc. I followed their recommendation and it was spot on. Easy booking on short notice before the trip, can't thank James enough!

Our remarkable trip was 12 months in the planning.it was awkward to organize because there was so many people coming and going over our two week chartered cruise.
I can’t speak highly enough of AWAVE and more to the point ,the wonderful Giulia Manfrini. She is so caring and sweet and far above and beyond any travel consultant that I have ever worked with
Thankyou Giulia for all your prompt answers to my gazillion questions
You are “Simply the best”.
Now onto the Carpe Diem
The trip of a lifetime was had by all 20 of us
The Captain and crew worked tirelessly to pander to our every whim
They would not allow us to lift a finger
Our Barmen Shawn and Cook ( still can’t pronounce his name ) were superb, the food was first class and varied and the alcohol flowed like a river
Our Surf guide “Seppe” found waves for us every day except for two while we travelled deep into the central Attols
We were greatful for the rest
We snorkeled with the sharks and visited uninhabited Islands spent an afternoon being spoiled at a high class resort .
All in all an Awsome trip

Great quality with simplicity
James helped us organize our trip in April for my partner and I in the Mentawai.
First, lets discuss the service : James was super clear and reactive. We received a list of resorts with different price ranges and he provided all the elements for us to decide based on our needs and budget. We felt very supported for the organization and we even received so advices few days before leaving for packing.
I was a bit afraid as i'm not a good surfer so i reach out many times to understand how I could still try and learn and James always replied very quick and with all the info i need.
Then when we arrive : it was super well organized, everything went smooth and we fell in love with the place and people. We can tell they really worked on their resort selection and travel organization and we trust our next adventure will be as qualitative.
Already recommended their service ;).

Perfect beach getaway
We just got back from a 10 day trip to Rancho Santana in Nicaragua, and we had a fantastic time. The property is gorgeous and the staff is amazing. The food was incredible as well. We enjoyed the two dollar rum happy hours, and had a great time surfing Panga Drops and taking a boat out one day. We will definitely be back.

It was truly unique
It was truly unique. Giulia from Awave planned a surf cruise for us, which was just perfect. We had a super friendly crew with a top guide—most of the time we surfed by ourselves. Thanks a lot

Booking with the AWAVE team to the Maldives
Booking with the AWAVE team to the Maldives was a pleasure in particular the support from both James & Adrian were extremly helpful.
The AWAVE team continued to provide us with specific details during our travel time to the MALDIVES to ensure it was nice and smooth.
The recommendation of staying at Ayada Surf resort was amazing except that there were no waves for the full eight (8) days unfortuneatly, however, thats mother nature nothing you can do about this.
However, we are considering of re-booking again for April 2024 at the Ayada Surf resort as it was an amazing place to stay at and you can understand and see the surf opportunities if you are a surfer.
The only issue we experienced was the payment with direct debiting would not go through and we had to end up paying via our credit card which attracked additional fees.
Other than that we would recommend to book a holiday with the AWAVE team as we look forward to coming back to the Maldives & then on to Sir Lanka in 2024.

Convenient and fast booking with AWAVE Travel
AWAVE Travel made booking of my surf trip to Morocco quick and convenient. I reached out to AWAVE Travel start of January as I wanted to travel Mid-January. Even though the request was short notice, AWAVE Travel processed my inquiry quickly and made my trip possible. I was always informed on the status and the trip included all deliverables listed in the package.
Booking through AWAVE Travel was more convenient than I could have expected: 5 stars!
Also, their website is good.

Stoked we went with James and Awave!
James at Awave consistently went above and beyond to help us choose and feel confident about our dream honeymoon destination. It was the best mix of a top class romantic resort and great surf, which was also important. After we realized that the Mentawais weren't going to work, based on our needs and availability, James helped redirect our booking to end up at Ayada Maldives. What an epic experience. This will be a trip we will always remember with fondness in our hearts and gratitude for all the great service we received before, (with James) and during our stay, (with all the staff). Another aspect of James' and Awave's great service was the promptness and thoroughness of his communication. All details he presented were clear and easy to understand, which can be confusing at times when our trip involved 3 flights and a speedboat and we were navigating the different travel and health protocols. All smooth and without a hitch. All in all, we're stoked and would love to go again in the future.

2 weeks of fun and games in the Maldives!
Giulia was very professional, patient and really helpful in organizing our surfing, fishing and snorkeling trip on the Gulfaam. Great care and advice! I think she even went out on the boat to test it out for us :-)
I've got to plug our crew: Captain Mohamed did a great job, fun loving character, avid fisherman; Surf guide Egan is a nice guy, we had lots of fun waves, snorkeled a wreck, swam with sharks; Nozrul the Chef was awesome, every meal gourmet, 5 star & delicious; our waiter Danushka, so attentive, always smiling and First Mate Achmed ferried us to and from water adventures, cleaned the fish we hauled on board. The boys really looked after us, they're now trusted friends!
Thank you AWAVE
Awave review
After a long time looking for a trip that suited my needs I found awave travel and soon was contacted by James. He couldn’t have explained the my options more clearly and put together a package that was perfect. I decided on a 10 day boat trip in the Maldives, it turned out being an epic trip with amazing waves , grate food and hospitality.
The team couldn’t have been more helpful through the booking process and throughout the trip.
All up a very personal service with a grate variety of trips , highly recommended
