Surfing in Medigama
Posted on February 11, 2009
An article in the Sunday Times on the pioneers of surfing in Sri Lanka first gave me a glimpse of what paradise has to offer. Sri Lanka’s surf scene is not that advanced and it was only a few months ago that I met with fellow ‘like minded’ people who enjoyed what I enjoyed – the beach and activities concerning the beach.
When the winds are not enough for Kitesurfing, we head ‘Down South’ in search of a nice gentle wave for us beginners. Julian Bowling, Sri Lanka’s Olympian in the sport of Swimming spoke of a gentle wave where Parrot Fish swam alongside the surf boards in crystal clear water. I was hooked and we headed to Medigama the following week. My cousin Keshini Hapugoda, a fellow enthusiast followed suit the week after. Read more

Vesak Holiday in Arugam Bay
Posted on June 17, 2008
We arrived in the small remote village of Arugam Bay at noon, on the first day of an amazing 4 day holiday. I have never seen a more beautiful place or experienced such simple living. Arugam Bay is a stretch of azure blue sea with crests of white fluffy waves breaking on the beach. The beach was steaming hot at noon yet by evening it offered long walks on cool golden sands.
Set back from the beach were coconut and palmyrah palms, some in groves and others standing alone. Across the bay at the various surf points you could see the surfers, sitting on their boards staring across the bay and waiting for the big waves. Read more
