WELCOME TO PRAYA CHARTERS

MENTAWAI ISLANDS

15 reasons to surf Mentawai without giving up the comfort of Seriti.

LARGE DINING ROOM

All meals will be taken in a pleasant dining room, with unobstructed views of the day’s wave.

YOUR SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY

EPIRB, 7 fire extinguishers, lifeboat for 25 people, 5 bilge pumps, GPS, radar and latest generation sonar. Having the correct safety equipment and knowing how to use it saves lives. Our team is trained and our boat is certified to offer excellence in safety.

TRAINED STAFF

Our surf guides, Diego and Lucas, have years of experience in the Mentawai Islands, reacting wisely to swell, wind and temperature charts.

2 SUPPORT BOATS, SNORKELLING AND FISHING EQUIPMENT

Total freedom to come and go between the islands, the waves and to explore your fishing skils.

PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILMING SERVICE

As surfers, we understand the value of having the best waves recorded by a serious and focused professional. Our photographer and videomaker Gustavo Camarão does not accumulate his function of recording the trip with any other, being exclusively focused on eternalizing the many special moments that you will experience. This service is optional and paid directly to the photographer, at a cost of USD 300.

AIRPORT/BOAT TRANSFER

Once in Padang, you don’t need to worry about anything else. Our staff will welcome you and take you to the boat in an air-conditioned van. The same applies for the return journey from the boat to the Airport.

2 DIESEL ENGINES WITH 350 HP EACH

Providing the security of never drifting and ensuring a maximum speed of 15 knots above the average Mentawai boat (10-12 knots cruising speed).

AIR-CONDITIONED LIVING ROOM WITH SOFAS, MOVIE COLLECTION, AND SEVERAL GAMES

Although some of our guests try hard, we have yet to have a surfer who has managed to stay in the water all day. Your entertainment for when you recharge your batteries will be of the highest quality.

12 NIGHTS/11 DAYS ON BOARD SERITI

It is not by chance that we have chosen 11-day trips. This range ensures that we can surf a variety of waves, satisfying all tastes.

3 GOURMET MEALS A DAY

This is the point that undoubtedly surprises most those who travel with Seriti. Our menu is a gastronomic experience and at the same time it has been prepared to guarantee a lot of energy throughout the trip.

SNACKS, FRUIT, SNACKS, WATER, ISOTONIC AND BEER

Once on board, you will forget about the existence of your wallet.

3 ENERGY GENERATORS

Our generators never shut down. All internal environments are cooled 24h/day and our electrical systems are always at full throttle.

2 FUEL TANKS WITH TOTAL CAPACITY FOR 5,000 LITRES

The archipelago has more than 30 waves of international quality, and all of them will be within your reach. There’s no doubt that a good trip on a long-range boat is the best way to fully explore what the islands have to offer.

WATER MAKER (DESALINIZER) AND 10,000 LITRE FRESH WATER TANK

Your cool water shower after your session and before meals is guaranteed.

Surfers who have been to Praya recommend it!

Bruno Santos

I was very impressed with Surfguide. The boat spared no effort to make us surf the best waves, often sailing long distances, without any concern for fuel consumption.

Paulo Zulu

The Praya trip is a wonderful dream come true! I met the guys from Praya, the administrators of the boat...They are very good people, competent and surf a lot! And the photographer is excellent! So, besides the personal return of the photos, you still have the incentive of the guys to surf better and to challenge yourself. I've been twice and I can't wait to go again!

Victor Bernardo

The cooks Yanto and Ari are the best in Mentawai! I've been on more suggestive, extravagant and expensive boats, but in terms of food, vibe and comfort (especially for sleeping), nothing compares to Praya

Yasmin Xavier

The Mentawai are the most beautiful place in the world, and Praya the best way to explore them. The boat is big, comfortable and clean. The rooms are huge and the lounge is surreal! There is room for everyone, a very cool movie collection and even a modern video game!

Our Team

Every company has a story, and ours was written by the passion for surfing. Our success is the result of quality work, attitude, and the way we treat our clients. We are proud to say that on the boat we make friends. The biggest proof of this is in the video below, where you can see our surf guides Diego and Lucas in action.
