Program

Awera Resort is strategically located within easy access of a huge range of waves. In the bay of the beach itself, there are three breaks, as well as a fleet of boats to take guests to over ten additional nearby spots. With this host of waves at our disposal, there’s something to suit every style of surfing and every ability level, a true surfer’s paradise.

The Mentawai Islands are renowned worldwide as a surfer’s paradise, and the reason for that is simple: the incredible abundance and variety of waves, unmatched anywhere else on Earth. There are left-handers and right-handers, rippable walls and perfect barrels, easy waves for beginners, challenging waves for experts, and everything in between.

This is without doubt one of the world’s foremost surfing destinations, with a range of waves that is practically infinite. Awera Resort offer surf lessons for complete beginners as well as advanced surfers and pros. Our expert instructors use a range of teaching methods to help you improve your surfing, from offering support and guidance in the water when you’re getting started, to filming your session and analyzing the footage with you in the evening over a drink.

Boats

Awera Resort has a fleet of three boats, two are wooden and one is metal. The use of the boats carries no additional cost. You can use this service as often as you want and can travel to a different spot every day. They can take you to over 10 surf spots around the Mentawai Islands, allowing you to access different surfing conditions in terms of level and style.

Surf lessons

The focus of surf lessons is to learn to handle your board better. The expert instructors will help you to improve using different techniques, support and guide you on your first outings, and take a video during your class, so you can watch and analyze it later, while you enjoy a soft drink, kick back, and relax.

Notes:

The Ferry departs at 7:00 a.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. You are advised to arrive in Padang one day before the ferry departs. The crossing takes about three hours. Your 11-day package starts on the day you arrive at the resort. The Padang overnight stay is not included in this package but should you want to include that, please advise Awera Resort so they can make the needed arrangement.

Surfer Rate

Designed for intermediate/advanced surfers. This includes all boat trips to the surf and the mandatory Mentawais surf tax. We usually go out 2 or 3 times per day and we always try to find the best spots regarding the forecast and surfing level of the groups. I advise booking the surfer in advance as we have a limited amount of surfers within the resort at one time (16 people).

Location

Awera really is an extraordinary setting with luxury facilities and dream surf spots. Directly in front of our beach there are 3 breaks, a couple within paddle distance. In this quieter area of the Mentawai there’s always something to suit every style of surfing and every level, a true surfer’s paradise.
