Arugam Bay Surf Camp
Arugam Bay, East Coast, Sri Lanka4.6(154)
Sri Lanka's premier point break, monsoon-proof from May to September
Our review
When the south-west monsoon shuts down Weligama, Arugam Bay turns on. Main Point delivers long, walling right-handers, and the camp shuttles guests to Whiskey Point and Peanut Farm for mellower days. Tuk-tuk surf safaris, lagoon safaris with wild elephants, and a beach bonfire every Friday.
What we loved
- World-class point break with warm water
- Perfect May-September season (opposite to south coast)
- Safari + surf combo unique to Sri Lanka
Worth knowing
- Remote — 6-7h drive from Colombo
- Limited options for total beginners at Main Point
Who it's for
Intermediate+ surfers chasing long right-handers during the European summer.
