    Whenever you come to Arugambay for surfing, I highly recommend to go visit Ocean Surf Camp which is located at Arugambay Main Street. The owner knows everything about local beaches and take you many good surf points. The instructions are also well trained in surfing. Taking lessons by them for more than a week was one of the best decisions I’ve made. I started with sponge board and after a week, I could surf long ride with hard board making turns. They are encouraging and very fun, and at the same time, very good giving advises to improve. If you really wanna experience local Arugambay surf culture, i recommend this shop! You will feel like you are good surfer afterwards.

    Kias taught my daughter surfing, he was very professional, courteous, docked, she thanks to him quickly absorbed what he taught, beyond the fact that he is an amazing and good person, always welcomed my daughter with open arms, recommends anyone interested in studying Barugam to contact Kias, the best and most professional.

    Had a flawless experience renting boards from Ocean during 11 days in arugam bay. Always easy going and could swap boards or get more wax when needed. Irfan helped us get in cantact with Najib, very reliable and kind tuk tuk driver, highly recommend this place and would rent from them again! Also helped us with transport for correct price.

    Kiyas is kind, clear, professional and had me surfing a wave by the end of the lesson. The constructive feedback he gave me was super valuable and I feel confident as a beginner now :)

    I had never used a surfboard before we scheduled our first lesson. The guys really try to give you the best surfing experience and make sure that you can catch some waves. We had two lessons and we were very lucky with the size of the waves. Thanks guys, it was a lot of fun!

    We are traveling with two family’s and we took 3 lessons. It was amazing to see the progress of the kids after these lessons and they were disappointed that the lessons were over. The youngest was 5 and they really take care of her to take her from the coast into the water. I really will recommend this surfschool and instructors

    Great surf instructor, probably the best I had so far. He gave good feedback on every wave we surfed and never stopped motivating us. He really is a nice guy and speaks good English. He also runs a nice surf shop together with his brother where you could also rent boards at fair prices. Would definitely recommend this surf school!

    Wonderful surf shop, excellent boards and gear, big variety, great staff! My board was checked and prepared with lots of dedication before handing it over, you don’t see this anywhere else in Sri Lanka. Very recommendable.
