There are litterally rentals all over the beach and they all seemed ok to us - good gear and nice staff. The water is although crammed with people since the bay is so small. So for surfing in general I would head to Weligama instead - beginner friendly waves most of the time and more space, better wave formation and less current.

Hi, I just stayed there for one week. It rains from time to time but surfing in rain to me is actually very sensational and enjoyable. Waves are small and clean around full moon. When I left, it started to get bumpy, though still very nice.

No need to book another whether will be ok 👌

Hi, If I were you I’d get the bus from Matara to Dikwella bus station and from there jump into a tuk tuk down to Hiriketiya.

Another place that I wished I’d checked out is Salt House or Pepper House. They both looked like awesome places to stay.
