Daily itinerary
Day 1: Colombo Airport - Weligama Bay
Once you arrive at Colombo International Airport (CMB), Lankan Tour Hub (Pvt) Ltd.’s guides will pick you up from the airport. Then, you will be directly transferred to the surf camp in Weligama, Sri Lanka via E01 Sothern Express Highway.
This day, the guides will be going to show you the city and beach around Weligama. You will check in and meet the team. There, you will enjoy a seafood beach barbecue, local foods, and Sri Lankan-style cocktails. Afterward, you can visit a beach party with DJ music or take a rest as you wish.
Day 2: Weligama Beach - two basic surf lessons
You will begin your day by enjoying a breakfast buffet, a combination of Sri Lankan and Western foods (changing daily). You will have a surfing lesson or professional surf guiding at My Surf Camp Surf School on the beach for almost two hours. You can collect your basic surfboard and start your practice with the surf teacher. You will have your buffet for lunch.
In your spare time, you may relax on the beach, go snorkeling, or you are free to practice surfing with the surf teacher in the afternoon. On this day, two surf lessons are included. You can go watch the evening sunset locations on the beach and do yoga with a yoga teacher till the sun goes down. In the evening, you will enjoy a barbecue grilled dinner or Sri Lankan food and take a rest.
Day 3: Weligama Beach - one basic surf lesson
Wake up to a freshly prepared breakfast of both Sri Lankan and Western foods (changing daily as you wish). This will be day two of your surfing career, so slap on the sunscreen, take your theory and practical lesson at the theater (the theory is every day and can be before or after the surf session), jump in a tuk-tuk, and head to the surf school for either a lesson or guided surf.
After this day's morning surf, all the lessons are finished and hopefully, you will catch your own waves on your own at a surf spot. Check-out is by 11:00 a.m. Grab some photos in My Surf Camp to show off to your friends. Make sure you have got everyone on Facebook and say goodbye to your surf camp family. They miss you already.
