Plus: good fun waves, offshore winds during the monsoon, cheap travel.The season at the west-east (hikkaduwa, midigama etc) is from nov-march and then at the east coast (arugam bay) it's from may-sept.
Minus: Fickle swells and winds, pollution, localism, Suffering a major civil war which is no longer contained in the Northern provinces. Get good travel advice before going!
The surf in Sri Lanka is there on the whole south coast. there are heaps of places that pic up the swell and provide up to 3ft of good quility waves, if you want the good stuff youll have to go in season Jan/Feb. Sri Lanka is average in all departments, the surf the people the vibe everything. Some days are good in the water but if everyone who goes there is honest it is crowded. The local surfers are pretty good and are getting more and more aggro towards foreigners each season,

Peanut Farm - Just south of A-Bay, there's a great place that's not easy to find called Peanut Farm -- great spot. If you ask the tukk tukk drivers in A-Bay, they know where it is. Best surf on the east coast, and a great place to take pic's, as the main break is right directly in front of a massive rock that juts out into the sea -- no chance of hitting the rock, the roll right is awesome...
