A SURF TRIP TO
Ahangama is a friendly local surf town with little tourism andarelaxing vibe.
The town is home to colourful markets, delicious food and two of the best waves in Sri Lanka.A short drive up or down the coast will take you to inspiring places to visit and National Parks with exotic wildlife. Sri Lanka’s Southern coast is the most consistent and possibly the best location for catching waves, with long beautiful beaches and learner-friendly reef breaks. Whether you’re learning to surf for the first time or taking your surfing to the next level, we highly recommend choosing Ahangama!
SURFING IN AHANGAMA
Sri Lanka is a tropical island offering some of the most learner-friendly waves on the planet. Surfing in Ahangama consists of excellent conditions, beautiful backdrops and welcoming locals.
The dry season in Ahangama runs from October to April, which is the best period for surfing here. Beginners will thrive on the mellow waves and sandy beaches, while intermediate and advanced surfers spend the day surfing on playful peelers and easy reef breaks.
A TYPICAL DAY SURFING
A typical day usually starts off with a delicious buffet breakfast at the surf camp. We’ll then either walk down to the local beach break or go on a short drive to a better breaking wave.
On arrival we’ll do a run-through of the day and warm up, before heading out in the surf for at least two hours. Following lunch and beach time, we return to the surf camp for social activities like yoga, games and excursions.
