“Aura Resort in North Sumatra was more than just a destination; it was an embodiment of the word "aura." From the moment I landed, the place, its people, culture, and ocean exuded an energy that brought immense happiness, a welcome reprieve after recovering from a injury.
Despite a grueling three-plane journey with surfboards in tow, the warm welcome of the locals, the delicious meals, and endless waves made it all worthwhile. Whether surfing the perfect A-frame waves in front of the resort or chasing barrels on a neighbouring island, the trip was a triumphant return to the ocean after a long hiatus. The island's unique blend of culture, governed by Sharia law, added an extra layer of fascination to this unforgettable adventure. It was a journey that left an indelible mark, an aura that will linger in my memory forever” – Mia McCarthy
