Wild, free, unique -our favorite activities at NIHI Sumba

At NIHI Sum ba, the experiences are special - not because of grand gestures, but because they arise from the location and unfold their effect naturally.

This is precisely what characterizes the resort and explains why many guests return again and again.

Whether it's a spa safari, surfing, paddle tennis or horseback riding by the sea: the variety is huge, but never feels arbitrary. The activities are not a program that you tick off, but part of a special NIHI lifestyle that is lived here as a matter of course.

Nihioka Spa Safari

Even the journey to the spa safari is part of the experience - on foot through rice fields and small villages, on horseback or relaxed in a spa vehicle. On site, it all begins with breakfast in a picturesque location that could hardly be more beautiful. This is followed by several hours of massages and treatments, accompanied by the sound of the sea and the sounds of the jungle. A unique wellness experience that combines luxury and nature in a wonderful way.

 

 

Swimming with Horses

An unforgettable moment: the gentle Sumbanese horses enter the sea and their power can also be felt underwater. An experience of nature, freedom and closeness to the animals - and one that also gives the horses visible pleasure.

 

Beach Horse Ride

On horseback, you ride along pristine beaches. Wind in your hair, sand under your feet, the waves right next door - an intense experience of freedom and nature. Particularly impressive at sunrise and sunset.

 

Surfing

Sumba's waves are legendary. With Occy's Left, a left-turning wave directly in front of the resort, NIHI offers one of the most famous surf spots in the region. Depending on the weather conditions, it is also suitable for beginners, otherwise there is a sheltered beginners' beach.

 

 

Padel, pickleball & tennis

For active guests, Nihi offers padel, pickleball and tennis - perfect for working out, having fun and enjoying the spectacular surroundings.

 

 

Sumba Foundation Tour with school visit

The Sumba Foundation Tour gives an insight into schools and villages in the area and shows how closely the resort is connected to the region. It shows how sustainable projects have an impact on everyday life - and how much they shape local life.

 

 

Wildlings - creative children's program

In the Wildlings program, children discover the island in a playful way. They learn about nature and everyday life in Sumba through crafts, painting, children's yoga and exploring together - in an age-appropriate way and with plenty of room for curiosity.

 

Chocolate making

At the NIHI Chocolate Factory, children not only learn how fine chocolates are made from cocoa beans - they also get to try their hand at making their own creations and, of course, enjoy them too.

 

 

 

Lopopu Waterfalls

A secluded natural gem: the hike leads to several cascades with natural rock pools for swimming, surrounded by dense tropical landscape - a beautiful, quiet place for a picnic far away from the daily resort routine.

 

Wanukaka River Adventure

On the Wanukaka River, you paddle through emerald-green watercourses, pass small waterfalls, meet laughing children and experience Sumba from an unusual perspective - close to the landscape and pleasantly slowed down.
