About Arugam Bay

Significantly placed along the south-east coast of the island, Arugam Bay Sri Lanka is a resplendent moon-shaped curl of soft golden sand. It is famously known as one of the ten most popular surfing spots in the world, not without reason. It is the place to experience the aura of majesty of the magnificent ocean, with each wave-break resonating a thrilling story.

Whether or not you are a great devotee of surfing, there is never a dull moment in Arugam Bay Sri Lanka. It is in fact the perfect base for many exhilarating excursions including an adventurous trek to explore the wild, or to take a peek at a few Buddhist temples little known of, or simply to laze around on the beach relaxing on a hammock as you drink in the splendour of your surroundings.

Arugam Bay weather is generally dry, with little rain in comparison to the rest of the island, but July and August are the best months in the year for a surfing trip.
