Explore the Island’s Hidden Breaks.

For those drawn to the thrill of discovery, our Surfari experience invites you to explore the breaks beyond NIHI Sumba.

Several surf spots lie within 30–60 minutes of the resort and can be accessed by car or boat. While Nihiwatu Beach is famed for hosting one of the island’s most celebrated waves, Occy’s Left, we understand the allure of hunting new swells and empty line-ups along Sumba’s wild coastline.

Wherever the swell leads, our experienced team will guide you to the break best suited to your ability, ensuring a day of exploration, progression, and unforgettable waves.

When the swell in front of NIHI Sumba grows larger and more challenging, Rua offers a more approachable alternative. Set within a sheltered bay, this mellow break features both right and left-hand waves, making it ideal for intermediate or progressing surfers looking to find their rhythm.

Just birds singing, waves rolling onto the shore, and the kind of silence that reminds you what peace actually sounds like.

As the sky melts into brilliant shades of gold, amber, and fire, there’s no better place to be than on horseback along the shores of Nihiwatu Beach as the sun slips below the horizon. This is NIHI Sumba.

Venture beyond @nihi to one of Sumba’s most beautiful coastlines.
.
Head out onto the open water to the best fishing spots and cast your line before continuing onwards to Konda where you’ll be welcomed by @kondamaloba.
.
Unwind between an oceanfront pool and Sumba’s turquoise waters while your freshly caught fish is prepared over an open fire before being served for lunch.
.
If you’re feeling like you need some more adventure, take to the water on jet ski and feel the wind in your hair as you explore the natural beauty of the bay.
.
This is an experience shaped and refined by the wild beauty of Sumba.

No trending music. This is what magic really sounds like: waves rolling onto the shores of Nihiwatu Beach, horses cooling off in the salty waters, and the wild spirit of NIHI Sumba.

Hidden within the raw terrain of the island are little known gems waiting to be discovered. Embark on an adventure with @nihi by exploring the natural environment of Sumba. You’ll set off in an open aired vehicle and drive through the landscapes with a sense of excitement at what you may encounter. A trek to the Blue Waterfall is one such adventure that you’ll long remember for years to come and live with the memory of being left in awe at the wonder of nature.

No trending audio. Just NIHI, exactly as it sounds.

Some places don’t need a soundtrack to be unforgettable. Here, it’s the waves, the horses running along the beach, and the quiet moments in between that tell the story. 🤍

As the sun slips below the horizon, summer nights at NIHI take on a magic of their own. Romance in the air, stars overhead, and the feeling of being forever wild.

A new chapter begins on the shores of Nihiwatu as @nihi’s new Riding & Racquet Club meets the Edge of Wildness.

A private members’ club aesthetic, translated onto the sand, with an international tennis court and a terrace overlooking the ocean for sunset drinks. This is where the romance of great polo clubs meets the raw, elemental beauty of Sumba.

The Riding & Racquet Club is unlike anywhere else. A concept that could only exist at NIHI.
