Surf like John John: Master the waves with super-coach Ross Williams at Four Seasons Kuda Huraa this July
This July 20th to August 1st, guests staying at Four Seasons Kuda Huraa Resort Maldives will have the rare opportunity to surf alongside one of the most respected figures in modern surfing… coach Ross Williams.
As part of the Four Seasons Maldives Summer Camp, Ross will host daily complimentary surf sessions exclusively for resort guests, creating a unique opportunity to improve your surfing in one of the world’s most iconic surf destinations.
Few surfers have made the transition from elite competitor to world-class coach as seamlessly as Ross.
After more than a decade competing on surfing’s highest stage, Ross built a reputation for his analytical approach to surfing performance. His coaching has since helped shape some of the world’s best surfers, including John John Florence and Tatiana Weston-Webb during their world title campaigns.
Ross focuses on the subtle details that elevate good surfing into great surfing: positioning, timing, wave selection and technical refinement.
For intermediate surfers looking to improve, the opportunity to share the lineup with Ross is rare. For advanced surfers chasing peak performance, you’ll be learning from one of the best minds in the sport.
Daily Surf Sessions in the Maldives
During the Summer Camp program (July 20th to August 1st 2026), intermediate and advanced surfers staying at Four Seasons Kuda Huraa Resort Maldives are eligible for a complimentary three hour surf session with Ross Williams each day.
For beginners or newer surfers, the resident Tropicsurf team remains available for private lessons and guided sessions, ensuring every guest can enjoy the Maldives’ famously warm, crystal-clear waves.
World-Class Waves just Minutes from the Resort
Kuda Huraa sits at the centre of the North Malé Atoll surf zone, placing Four Seasons guests within minutes of the Maldives’ most celebrated waves.
Nearby breaks include:
-
Sultans - one of the Maldives’ most consistent performance rights
-
Honkey’s - the left mirroring Sultans with a powerful end section
-
Jails - another right, down the line with deep barrels
-
Cokes - fast, hollow and legendary
-
Chickens - long, racing left-hand walls
-
Ninjas - a softer right ideal for progression
The Perfect Balance of Surf and Island Luxury
Between surfs, Four Seasons Kuda Huraa Resort delivers everything expected from a world-class island resort, from oceanfront dining and overwater villas to spa treatments on the resort’s private spa island.
After a morning in the lineup, afternoons might be spent relaxing by the infinity pool, snorkelling the reef or enjoying sunset drinks overlooking the lagoon.
Or simply head back out for another surf before the sun drops below the horizon.
Limited Availability
With daily surf sessions led by Ross Williams and access to some of the Maldives’ most iconic waves just minutes away, this Summer Camp experience at Four Seasons Kuda Huraa Resort is a rare opportunity to combine world-class coaching with luxury island living.
