As highlighted on the Sunday Observer news website in March and April this year, surfing in Sri Lanka has come a long way in this island nation and continues to draw surfers from around the world. Amongst the key locations mentioned for those looking to hit the waves were Arugam Bay on the southeast coast and Hikkaduwa, Weligama and Mirissa on the south coast. Those staying at a luxury boutique hotel Sri Lanka has to offer in the scenic locale of Mirissa including properties like Lantern Boutique Hotel can easily enjoy surfing adventures in this part of the country.
First introduced to Sri Lanka in the 1960s by Rusty Miller and some of his friends, surfing here has grown in popularity with Arugam Bay hosting a qualification event for the World Surf League as well. Apart from picturesque coastal locations, the island also provides year-round surfing; November to March is the ideal time for surfing on the south coast, while on the east coast, April to October is the optimal time for this activity.
