Jun 18 – June 28 Mentawai
COST / PAX
Available Spaces: 1
There is absolutely no better time to be up in the Mentawais than now , with the swell season kicking in and minimal crowds you can really expect some epic conditions. Get ready for literally a trip of a lifetime!
We are really excited to be setting sail for the islands and plan to spend the next few months chasing waves, diving , fishing and soaking up all that the islands have to offer. We appreciate times are hard for everyone so we have worked out a crazy reduced rate that will hopefully be affordable, get us out there surfing and go some way towards covering the costs of operation.
Departing from Tuapejet in the central Mentawais means we can pick you up from the fast ferry and have you surfing the very same day. Nearby waves include Telescopes, Icelands and Scarecrows with Playgrounds just a short sail away.
We’ll make a call based on the forecast and guest preference and spend the rest of the charter seeking out the best and most suitable conditions on any given day. We intend to hit all the highlights and also push out to some of the lesser known hidden gems.
We will end the trip in Tuapejet meaning an opportunity to surf on the morning of departure before taking the fast ferry back to Padang.
If you have a group and want to book out the whole boat then you’ll need to pay for 8 guests to guarantee exclusive use. Please contact for prices for group charters and alternative dates.
Hit us up with any questions and to discuss options/dates we will keep updating here an on social channels as the trips fill.

“Wow, what can we say – exceeded our wildest dreams with many of the lads who have been on 3-4 other boat trips in the Ments & Maldives calling it the best experience out of the lot! The character of the boat itself, the awesome food , surf knowledge and froth factor in the water !

“6 trips to the Ments, easily as good, if not the best. Food, waves and vibe outstanding! Love the boat, it’s got soul not like the western gin palaces. Food mountain and general energy none better! Always on the money, great guides and great humans. Chris, his shots are unreal makes old hacks look pro, well underrated! Thanks for making an old man happy.”

“First of all, I can’t thank you – all of the Jiwa crew enough. You all worked so well as a team to make the experience of one of my all-time surf trips for sure. I ate like a King, laughed until my belly hurt, shared great company with some amazing humans and then washed it all away with some good ales. I really loved the boat and the way she sailed too. Thanks does not express my appreciation. Looking forward to coming on board again soon. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhh!!!!!”

“3 sheets to the wind. All fun aboard the good ship JIWA. Thanks for the delightful fuel each day and for reminding us of the reason we are here; for leading from the front and the boundless enthusiasm. For the positive words and actions made me try a littler harder. And the crew who graciously kept the geriatric circus moving forward. Thank you!”
