Bohemian has been based in North Sumatra longer than any other surf charter boat. Over the years our goal has never changed - simply to give our guests the best surfing holiday possible. Bohemian operates out of the port of Sibolga in North Sumatra and our typical charters go to the Banyak Islands, Treasure Island (Bangkaru), Babi, the Hinako Islands (Asu & Bawa) and the surf spots on Nias. On request we can also go south to the Telos or north to Simeulue. Most of our trips focus on the Banyaks and Treasure Island because this is what the guests want. When the swell drops we head for the Hinakos. Asu and Bawa are swell magnets. And since these spots work on different winds there is almost always a wave to be had. When the swell picks up these spots can often get bigger than the guests want. The Hinakos are just off the coast of Nias, so there are also a number of other waves close at hand. The skipper has years of experience in these waters and gets the latest swell and weather forecasts daily. He will let you know the best options on any given day and put you where you want to be, and also let you know when he thinks it may be a good idea to make a move to another surf spot.

We offer surfers the advantages of small group charters. We take a maximum of 6 charter guests. This means no instant crowd if everyone jumps in the water at the same time. It also makes it easier to organize a full-boat booking for just you and your friends.

BOHEMIAN WAS DESIGNED & BUILT TO BE A SURF CHARTER BOAT. With flared hulls and lots of headroom, Bohemian is spacious, comfortable and STABLE. Catamarans don't roll from side to side like other boats. On Bohemian you can put a can of beer down on the table and it will stay there. This makes it much more user-friendly, ESPECIALLY for people who are prone to sea-sickness. Built by surfers, for surfers, with the emphasis on function and practicality, Bohemian gives you the room you need to enjoy yourself. Bohemian is a 50' aluminum catamaran built to survey in Australia by owner/operator Steve Bridge. It was built for the specific purpose of surf charter. Guests on Bohemian sleep in twin-berth cabins (not dorm style accommodation). The saloon is light and airy with ample seating area, TV, VCD, and stereo. There is plenty of power available 24 hours a day to charge the batteries for your video cameras and other gear. The boat is fully air-conditioned, has a water maker, and is equipped with all modern navigational and safety equipment as well as a satellite phone. On deck there is plenty of room to lounge around in the cockpit or under a large deck tent where you can lay back and watch the action while you rest up for your next session.. Bohemian is powered by twin Yanmar diesel engines.

Bohemian has always had a well-deserved reputation for good food. We make sure that meals are always something to look forward to, with plenty of delicious, healthy food. The fishing is good and fresh caught fish features big on the menu. The tuna, mahi mahi or king mackerel that you caught that day will be on the table that night. We bring in all the western food you like from Medan for every trip and load up on prawns, squid, chicken and plenty of fresh fruit and veggies from the local markets.

The unspoiled beauty of these remote islands off the coast of North Sumatra provides a perfect setting for the world-class waves. The Banyak Islands and Bangkaru are part of a wild-life conservation district. Treasure Island has virgin rain forest growing down to the edge of beautiful beaches and the crystal clear waters host a wide variety of marine life. One of the primary turtle nesting beaches in all of Sumatra is located here.

So what are you waiting for? Experience the perfection of Treasure Island and the Banyaks; the power of Bawa and Asu. Paddle into the world famous right hander at Lagundri Bay on Nias or surf at spots that you have never heard of. Depending on the conditions and your preferences, we can take you surfing at places so perfect that you'll think you're dreaming, other spots heavy enough to challenge even battle-scarred Indo veterans, and mellow waves that are just right for a good, fun surf.
