Sultans Maldives

Sultan's, otherwise known as Thamburudhoo, (Sultan's is easier to say) is a world class right-hander for more experienced surfers. Surf through all tides over the sharp coral reef for rides up to 150m long. The waves at Sultan's can get a little crowded because of its proximity to other spots like Cokes and closeby resort islands.
