I've dreamed about visiting and surfing the Mentawai Islands ever since I arrived in Indonesia ten years ago.

So when the invitation came up from Togat Nusa Retreat I jumped at the chance to spend ten days on a private island with an amazing group of friends, surfing and spending pretty much all day in and around the water or the beach.

This photo gallery covers highlights from ten days of surfing the waves in an around Togat Nusa Retreat in Sumatra.
