Here's a quick run down on things you might need for the trip: Surfboards - As we're traveling to a semi remote location, I'd recommend bringing two boards in case one gets damaged. We're happy to help with any surfboard recommendations. Surf equipment - Tropical surf wax, 2 sets of fins + fin key, 2 legropes, zink/sun cream, first aid kit. Surf wear - A couple of pairs of comfortable boardshorts and a rash vest to keep warm. As it's a Muslim destination, women will need surf leggings (can possibly surf in boardshorts but I'll need to double check) and a long sleeve rash vest. Reef booties are also great for getting in and out of the surf. Mosquito Repellent - A good mosquito repellent and light long sleeve/pants clothing for evening protection. Travel Insurance - This is required to come on the trip. Toiletries - Just your normal stuff, we supply you with bath towels, soap/shampoo Don’t worry if you forget something as most toiletries can be purchased on the Island. Clothes - 3 T-Shirts + long-sleeved cotton shirt or jacket, sunglasses, sandals / jandals, a good hat, beach towel. Cash - Enough Cash for the entire stay, remember NO credit card cards accepted and limited access to ATM machine with MasterCard cards and Visa cards only. Passport - with AT LEAST 6 months remaining on your passport or you will not be allowed to enter Indonesia. First Aid - Bring a personal first aid kid with the medicine you normally take.

Yes. Simeulue people, though very friendly, maintain their strong Muslim beliefs. Therefore, Men & Women are respectfully asked to dress moderately when outside the resort grounds. Men are expected to wear a shirt and footwear, Women a long skirt or trousers and something to cover their shoulders and this, unfortunately, means no bikini, tank tops when out in town. Surfing and Swimming, we recommend men wear board shorts and a rash shirt if you like. Women either a one-piece swimsuit with long tights or board shorts with a rash vest. Recently, locals are getting used to westerners and we are seeing some women wearing bikinis bottoms with a rash shirt at certain surf spots. So it is ok most of the time. We can also arrange boat trips to secluded islands where dress is not an issue. We are sure that with a little common sense and respect for the culture, you are in there will be absolutely no issues. If you have any questions on this, please just ask.

As far as the covid vaccination requirements are concerned the Indonesian government (immigration) are no longer checking for proof of covid vaccination.

Majority of the waves are for intermediate surfers + so we are looking to take surfers that have completed the Advanced Beginner Plus program or who felt very comfortable out the back during their Advanced Beginner program.

The Luxury Villas are twin share with each room will have two single beds in it. Depending on the configuration of the trip we will do our best to get men and woman seperate.

Yes, but we recommend you bring everything you need from home.

It is a matter of personal choice whether to take anti-malarial medication. Mosquitos are annoying and can transmit deadly diseases. However, there is extremely little malaria and dengue fever on Simeulue Island. A fan turned on during the night is effective in deterring mosquitos. Please be aware to put on mosquito repellant in the early mornings and evenings when they are most active. We suggest applying plenty of mosquito repellent, but if you are very concerned consult your doctor and bring some anti-malarial medication.

The Resort is within a short walking distance from the nearby hills with a marked access road leading to higher ground close by. There are sirens in the nearby mosques and warnings are issued on all local TV.
