Frequently Asked Questions

Surf Trips Info

A surftrip is a great experience and it is normal that it generates doubts and questions. We have compiled this series of frequently asked questions to clarify any doubts you may have. If you have any additional questions that are not answered in our list you know what you have to do, contact us now through any of our channels, Web, WhatsApp or Instagram.

¿ARE THE TRIPS SUITABLE FOR BEGINNERS?

Of course! Most of the trips we organize in Manihi are designed for all levels, especially for beginners, intermediates and if there are couples who want to join us and do not surf, they can also enjoy.

¿DO PEOPLE USUALLY SIGN UP ALONE FOR TRIPS ORGANIZED BY MANIHI?

Most people usually sign up alone or with a friend. In our experience, don’t worry if you go alone, we take care of creating a good group where everyone feels included and very comfortable.

¿WHAT IS THE AVERAGE AGE OF THE TRAVELERS?

There is a bit of everything, most of them are between 18 and 40 years old. The average age of the Maniher@s is between 25/30 years old.

¿IS IT NECESSARY TO TAKE OUT TRAVEL INSURANCE?

If your private insurance gives you coverage it will not be necessary, if not, we recommend SEGUROS MONDO, which provides coverage for travel assistance and cancellation expenses, in case you finally cannot travel or have to return early. In addition you have a 5% discount for coming from Manihi.

In case you want to take out insurance to cover you in case of an accident while surfing anywhere in the world, we recommend InterMundial insurance.

¿DO I NEED TO BRING MY EQUIPMENT?

It depends on the destination. There are destinations such as Maldives where it is necessary for each person to bring their own equipment as there are no places to rent it. It is detailed in each trip.

¿ARE THE FLIGHTS INCLUDED?

No, they are not included. In this way, everyone can choose their preferred flight schedule and look for the fares that best suit them.

¿HOW DO I DEFINE MY SURFING LEVEL?

Beginner: A person who is just starting out, catching foam and learning to stand up.
Intermediate: Surfer who already surfs the wall of the wave and performs small maneuvers successfully.
Advanced: Surfer who connects several maneuvers with strength and generates speed.
Pro: Surfer who performs all kinds of powerful maneuvers in all conditions.

After many years of dedication and time investment. All the destinations, accommodations and services we offer have been previously visited and tested by us to guarantee a unique and desired treatment, service, experience and quality.

Many of the other agencies, resorts, surfcamps or liveaboards organize their own trips and may tend to recommend themselves and over-promise expectations that once at the destination are not met if you contact them directly, we recommend to be very aware of that!
