Its location in the surf rich Mentawai Islands chain offers an abundance of waves, especially lefts! A small resort, catering for only 8 guests at a time, the focus is on service and friendly vibes.
The retreat is blessed with a very consistent and extremely good left hander called Scarecrows that breaks a short distance from its shores. Several world class waves are also reachable within a short speedboat ride including the world famous left hander Telescopes.
Guests are able to travel to the resort on a set schedule with 10, 11 and 12 day trips available from February until November.

Included in the daily surfer rate are your daily boat rides;
Morning Surf session: typically 6.30am - 8.30am until 12pm
Afternoon surf session typically 2.30pm - 3pm until 6pm
Every guest will have daily boat rides to the surf included in their package. The first session will depart Togat Nusa between 6.30am and 8am depending on what’s agreed the evening before. Guests will return back to base for lunch, usually by 12pm. The afternoon surf departs around 2-3pm and returns back about 30 minutes before dark. The decision on where to surf will depend on the surf guide and what the group/majority would like to do. Guests can surf Scarecrows any time of day they like too.
There are 2 boats available for our guests. The main boat is a traditional dugout canoe, powered by two 40 horsepower Yamaha engines that will transfer you safely to and from the surf at speeds of up to 20 knots. Built locally, this style of boat is designed for travel in local waters and whilst the ride can sometimes be a little wet, the length and shape of the hull helps it cut efficiently through the surf for a smoother ride than a western style speedboat.
Our drivers are experienced boatmen, growing up in the islands and around boats all their lives. As well as containing all the required safety gear, the boat has a cooler with cool drinks, a large roof and padded seats with backrests, ensuring guests are comfortable and protected from the sun during travel or when taking breaks between sessions.
Togat Nusa’s 9m aluminium speedboat is also used locally but will always be used when heading off for further missions north and south. Complete with a cabin & powered by 2 x 200 hp Suzuki engines the boat is equipped with GPS, radio and safety equipment. All missions to playgrounds or HT’s will be an additional charge of USD$ 300 / day for up to 8 guests.

Words can’t describe how amazing Togat Nusa Retreat really is. I was lucky enough to spend 12 days, literally in paradise, with the best company, best food, and best surfing anyone could hope to enjoy, warmest thanks again, Carol.
By James McMahon
I just returned to LA from a 10-day trip at Togat Nusa and I can certainly say it was well worth the days of travel it took to get to the island! Hands down the most beautiful place I have ever visited. Ticks all the boxes if you want to relax, enjoy nature and score epic warm water waves.
By Jenny Stones
Great waves, amazing people and fantastic food. Your own private Island with an awesome left breaking on the reef! Its paradise and I’m already planning my next trip there.
