Why Choose Us?

Simply put, with Freedom Surf Adventures, the name says it all. Our customizable trips give you the freedom to surf the kinds of waves YOU want; from all the world class breaks of the Mentawai to the multitudes of perfect waves pumping daily at more rarely surfed spots in the island chains to the north.

And what better way to enjoy your trip than on a top notch boat with a great crew? The crew aboard our yachts are some of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet, and they’re keen to treat you to the most insane surf, greatest fishing, tastiest food, and all around best times you’ll ever have.

Freedom Surf Adventures is owned, operated, and skippered by surfers, for surfers. Rest assured that, unlike leased or venture boats, our yachts are maintained to the highest standard - Ours! - and our team takes pride in making sure that every guest goes home totally stoked.

Why Choose West Sumatra?

Without doubt, nowhere else on earth offers the sheer number and variety of world class surf breaks located in such a compact area.

With the diversity of setups and Sumatra’s legendary swell consistency there are always spots with perfect conditions, and you can rest assured that our veteran skippers know exactly where they are.

Land Camps vs. Yacht Charters

While land camps are great for couples and the chronically seasick, yacht charters are by far the best way to access ALL the breaks conveniently and easily, allowing you to be be at the right place at the right time to take full advantage of prevailing conditions.

Those staying at land camps are limited to close-by breaks within reach of speedboat. Accessing breaks not imediately next to the camp means a bumpy ride of 30 minutes or more in the hot sun, only to to do it all over again after a long surf. Why not have your living room, your restaurant, your gear, and your bed a short 30 second dinghy ride away, all day, every day? Best of all, when conditions or your desires change, you just pull up the anchor and move the whole show to a new spot.

With so many breaks to choose from and so many waiting to be discovered, you are sure to find the wave of your dreams in Sumatra. Come surf with us. You wont be disappointed!


All of us at Freedom Surf Adventures look forward to seeing you soon!
