Mirissa Beach<br />

SURF'S UP<br />

It's surfing season in Sri Lanka. Here's where to catch a wave...<br />

1MIRISSA BEACH<br />

Matara<br />

South of Weligama, this<br />

hidden gem is one of Sri<br />

Lanka's best kept secrets. Lush<br />

palm trees enhance the scenic<br />

landscape as you work your<br />

way to perfecting that reef<br />

break. If you're lucky, you may<br />

even spot a migrating blue<br />

whale or get to play with a pod<br />

of friendly dolphins.<br />

2HIKKADUWA BEACH<br />

Galle<br />

Consistent waves makes<br />

this idyllic spot a must-do<br />

for surfers of all skill levels.<br />

Beginners will appreciate the<br />

way waves form and peel away<br />

smoothly towards the shore.<br />

Come prepared though, as the<br />

local Hikkaduwa surfers have<br />

a flair for competition – get set<br />

to see some moves.<br />

3UNAWATUNA BEACH<br />

Galle<br />

Turn a day of surfing<br />

fun into a family affair at this<br />

kid-friendly beach. Ride the<br />

waves with your little ones<br />

in tow as they splash away<br />

in the water. Want to know<br />

where the good swells are?<br />

Simply ask the locals. They're<br />

always very happy to point<br />

out the perfect spots.<br />
