Sri Lanka’s coastline offers waves for every level, from the gentle, learner-friendly breaks of Weligama and Hikkaduwa to the powerful reef breaks of Arugam Bay on the east coast. Surf schools across the island offer lessons and board rentals, while the south-west and east coasts’ opposing monsoon seasons mean there’s good surf somewhere in Sri Lanka nearly year-round. It’s an increasingly popular draw for both beginners and experienced wave-riders.
