Where to begin...
Weligama is a great spot for beginners and is more and more becoming the base for lessons from surf schools in Unawatuna and Midigama. The beach break allows beginners (with no upper body strength) to walk to the first break and slowly ease to the back break as your confidence increases. A few nice guesthouses right infront of the surf means you can chill out in a hammock, have a cup of tea or some food while waiting for the surf. There tends to be waves here when it is sloppy everywhere else, but the waves are slow so only fun on big days or when you are first starting (and still combatting your reef fears). Another spot in Weligama is near the island but is flat there during season time (Nov-Feb).

brumm turn on the wavefactory!!
best place to travel to! ask for brumm at the bay view just 300m south of downtown weligama right at the surfspot. brumm teaches you to ride the waves, shows you all the places to surf, eat local food, visit the buddas & more.. there is no better place in SL!UUUUUU ;-)
