Weligama

The majority of people in Sri Lanka learn to surf in Weligama. This is due to the fact that it has some of the most well-protected waves in this area of the island, in addition to a wide variety of surf shops and rental locations. You should do some research before you walk out to catch your first waves because some are a lot better than others.

Weligama is one of the biggest excellent beach towns in Sri Lanka featured here, surf included. It is located along a broad horseshoe harbor that crosses the main Matara Road. There are large and small hotels, although the larger ones appear to have gained popularity. At times, Weligama can resemble Benidorm or Waikiki thrown onto the Indian Ocean. Additionally, it just takes 10 minutes to travel by tuk-tuk from the town to Midigama (great reef breaks) and Mirissa (beach parties), and it shouldn't cost more than 300–500 LKR to get there.

Location: Matara District, Southern Province, Sri Lanka
