Weligama

Level: Beginner

Weligama is only a 5 minute tuk tuk ride form our camp. It's a good spot for beginners where you can catch white water and sometimes when the swell is bigger some green waves.
This spot is not so crowded which is perfect for beginners

Kabalana

Level: All Levels

Kabalana : Kabalana is a spotc15 minutes from our surf camp by tuk tuk. There you can catch some powerful white water which is perfect for beginners to catch their first own waves. As it’s a long beach, we have a lot of space to do our lesson. Further up the ocean is another spot called Rocks , which is good for intermediate and advanced surfers.

Fishermans

Level: Intermediate

Fisherman is a spot 1 minute by tuk tuk or a 7 minute walk from camp. It's a place where intermediate surfers can catch green waves. Usually busy, its a spot which allows you to paddle out a bit further than usual but it's worth it once you get to the outside. Usually small, this wave is easy to catch and offers you a long ride.

Jungle Beach

Level: All Levels

Jungle is the closest spot from our camp. We can go walking with the boards and it’s a beautiful small beach. You have two different waves (right and left). The right one is for inter medium which can ride a green wave. The left one is for intermedium/advanced surfers which can turn on the green wave.

Petrol Station

Level: All Levels

Petrol is a spot at 10 minutes by tuk tuk from Elsewhere. It’s a spot where you have left and right waves, beautiful landscape, and almost always empty. This spot is for intermedium when the swell is small and advanced when the swell is bigger.

Season

November - March is the dry season and has the most consistent surf.


Weligama is a perfect beginner and intermediate surf break. It is arguable the most consistent beach break on the South Coast.

Only a quick 4KM and ten minutes by tuk-tuk from Weligama is the idyllic Mirissa. A quiet stretch of beach that has turquoise and crystal clear waters on beaches fringed by palms.

Mirissa is an established stop-off for surfers, with two breaks at either end of the beach. There is a right-hander reef break near the rocks that doesn’t generate much power, that is great for those who are progressing on to reef. And an equally good left-hander close to the harbour.
