EXCELLENT Based on 250 reviews Posted on Google Ross BerthinussenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been on a few Maldives boat trips and Renegade are a level above. They find the best waves, avoid the crowds, cook wholesome food, bring the vibe, and give you a coach for the week. Highly recommend 🤙Posted on Google Marc AzconaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Magical trip! Renegade met and exceeded every expectation I had for a boat/surf trip. From Dale and Simon keeping us up to date on all the details of the trip, to Edam, JJ and Jacob keeping the stoke up and the surf coaching next level, to the crew of Theia being so helpful and professional. The waves were perfect. I can't recommend Renegade enough. My only regret is that I will have to wait a little to return.

The whole team are a bunch of legends and couldn’t have made us feel more welcome. Every effort is made to make sure you get the best possible experience from finding the best waves whilst trying to avoid crowds where possible. The company also clearly cares about the local surf culture and wider community in the Maldives, actively trying to give back where they can and looking after their staff well. It was great to see! I’ve no doubt I’ll be back!Posted on Google Seline MovementTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After last year’s Renegade Surf Travel trip in the Maldives, we booked again almost immediately and going back for my second trip made it even more special. I knew a little more of what to expect, I was better prepared, and some of the things the surf coach had pointed out during last year’s surf coaching sessions had finally clicked. I was so excited to have the chance to surf the same spots again and see the difference. And it was SO much fun! Honestly, everything about this Maldives surf trip is just incredible. The waves over crystal-clear water are obviously a highlight, and we were incredibly lucky to have at least one session every day with only our group in the water. Erin, our surf coach, was an absolute gem. She went above and beyond to help everyone improve their surfing, giving really thoughtful and individual feedback throughout the trip. The boat crew were fantastic, the chef kept us very well fed with delicious and plentiful food, and our guides Yeaman and John organised everything seamlessly. From coordinating with other surf boats and keeping the schedule up to date, to arranging extra adventures like snorkelling, visiting a local island and exploring an uninhabited island. But there’s another part of this surf adventure that I think doesn’t get talked about enough: the effect it has on your nervous system. Yes, surfing is thrilling and gives you plenty of adrenaline. But at the same time, you’re completely immersed in nature almost 24/7. You’re in the water, on the water, watching the sunrise and sunset every day, eating well, sleeping on a boat and completely stepping away from the usual everyday stressors. There’s something incredibly powerful about being that disconnected from normal life and so closely aligned with the natural rhythm of the day. For me, that’s the magic combination: surfing for the kick, nature for the downregulation. Two trips in, and I already know I’ll be back again at some point. If you’re looking for a surf trip that combines amazing waves, great surf coaching, adventure, incredible food and a genuinely restorative experience, I couldn’t recommend Renegade Surf Travel more highly.Posted on Google Will CushingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently enjoyed a wonderful trip with Renegade. Great waves, insightful and helpful coaching, amazing food, and such a fun, supportive overall vibe among the group. This was not my first Renegade trip and it won’t be my last!Posted on Google Alexandre HermannTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've done surf trips before, but Renegade is on another level. The coaching is what sets them apart — these guys actually watch you surf, break it down session by session with video analysis, and give you the kind of feedback that sticks. I came home surfing noticeably better, and that rarely happens. The food? Honestly didn't expect much on a boat. Big mistake — it was a highlight of the trip. Fresh, generous, proper meals after every session. Exactly what you need when you're surfing 3–4 times a day. Small groups, uncrowded waves, coaches who genuinely care. If you're serious about your surfing, just book it.Posted on Google Edward LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Quick review for 3rd trip. Crew, Pep, Edam and Rothen were great. Really well organised again, great atmosphere and good waves especially last half. Boat is great, good size and plenty of space, having starlink onboard is a big bonus. Fantastic company if looking to see the Maldives and surf with the least. amount of other boats Old review 2nd surf trip with Renegade to central atolls. Excellent surf focused trip that will find you the best waves irrelevant of distance. Nic and Shannon were fantastic. Waves we had this trip were amazing. Would recommend to anyone wanting a trip that focuses on the surfer and waves and how to improve your surfing rather than some surf travel companies who limit the distances they will travel and have set itineraries irrelevant of wave conditions.Posted on Google Nick PTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best in the business. Second trip with these guys and they have nailed it both times. Best coaches, best guides and best crew.
