I was a total of one week in The Surfer, am very satisfied and returned with many great memories and experiences! From a super modern accommodation, to a restaurant with super tasty and beautifully served food, to great surf and yoga lessons. It was a really good time there! All the staff was super friendly and helpful. Big thanks to all the surf instructors who showed me the first steps in surfing and infected me with their enthusiastic nature. Special thanks to Sohan who accompanied and supported me to the doctor due to an ear infection. I am very glad that I chose this camp and will come back next year.

I was supposed to only stay there for one week, but the atmosphere and the camps was so great that I decided to directly extend one more week until my flight back home. The whole team does an amazing job! It feels professional and like staying at a family at once. The food is always great and the sleeping amenities are excellent. If you have any questions before the trip they will be answered in a couple of minutes. Finally the surfing is amazing, coming from Europe, surfing on these waves are like a dream, and the guides or teacher give you the best advices to get to the perfect spots. Thanks to all of the team again I had an amazing time.

Had the best time here at The Surfer! The staff and the owner were the nicest people ever. I booked for 4 weeks and I found it to be a bit too long, so I would recommend going for 2/3 weeks if you really want to become better in surfing! If you just want to come here for fun and for meeting new people, 1 week would be enough for you! The surfing lessons were amazing and the instructors really gave personal feedback which was great for improving your skills! Would definitely recommend coming here!

Сhoosing this place, you must clearly understand that this is a surf camp, not a hotel. I was at the camp for 2 weeks and i really liked this camp. 1. This is a real sports camp - I liked the instructors, the training schedule, and the level of their training. 2. every day there were all sorts of activities for the guests - which is very cool 3. The staff is very friendly and makes guests feel at home 4. Any issues (including travel) are resolved very quickly . The reverent attitude of the staff towards the local dog Dali deserves special attention - I have not seen such tenderness and attentiveness anywhere else! . I would be very happy to return to this place again!

Highly recommend this place. Comfortable accommodation, tasty food, great people. The ocean is just in few steps. Grateful to surfing instructors, they made a great job explaining the theory and fixing mistakes. We visited different spots to find perfect waves for our level. Enjoyed the atmosphere of the camp a lot - games, parties, quizzes, movies. Sunrise and sunset yoga classes on the rooftop were lovely. Staff was very friendly and always ready to help. Happy to be part of the surfing culture. Everything is so easy and relaxed. Will definitely visit it again :)

Stayed here for a little over 3 weeks and I had the best time, was an experienced surfer already but the value from the instructors was amazing, accommodation was great, surf was great, food was great, atmosphere was amazing! Highly recommended this place !!! Kusa, sohan, hansa and sachin and all of the staff were the best quality people the world has to offer and make the whole experience that much better. See ya soon guys ❤️🤙🏼

I booked one week in single room in December in the main building of The Surfer and it was just great! The place is nice, well kept and clean, with nice café/chill out area on the roof top. Food was very tasty! The beach is just 50m from the door so you can practise surfing any time you want. Surf teachers are good and attentive. All lessons were recorded and we had video analyses every day even as total beginners (which was my case 😉). The vibes and atmosphere here is very relaxing and welcoming, I will come again!

I have been at the Surfer over NYE this year and it was awesome. I love the uncomplicated vibe, the lovely crew and all the fellow surfers from allover the world and of all ages. Though I was definitely one of the older surf „dads“ it was a lovely spirit. Looking forward to coming back to The Surfer. What a beautiful place! Plus all the activities besides surfing and yoga: Video analysis, karaoke, quiz night, going to the disco etc. - Thank you

A place where you want to return Rooms are cozy and very clean. The location is amazing with the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen!weligama city is very close! Delicious food and the stuff very helpful! The surf instructors are the best,you learn how to surf in all levels!!

I stayed at The Surfer for 9 days and absolutely loved it! I chose to stay in a dorm at TS2 (their secondary location) and found the accommodation to be very clean and comfortable. It was a quick 5-minute tuk tuk ride or a lovely 30 minute walk along the beach to the main camp where we would spend most of the day. The food is amazing (and breakfast and dinner are included!) but can take a bit to arrive (especially at dinner, which is served to everyone at the same time). The location is great for surfing and they provide tuk-tuks to different spots on the coast for more advanced surfers. Some classes are video reviewed but it’s a bit random and I only received two sessions with video. Overall this place is an amazing value for the money and I would absolutely return :)

I stayed at The Surfer for 8 days… and extended my stay for another week because I had such a great time. They have the created the perfect atmosphere here for learning, making friends and having fun. Was riding unbroken waves by the end of my first week on the board thanks to the great instructors and have made friends for life. Also the food and rooms are really high quality. I will be certainly coming back next season!

Spent about 7 days at The Surfer and had the greatest time. The staff, owner and surfing instructors are very skilled and are the nicest people ever who help you with everything you need, from surfing to getting around the country the most comfortable way. Airport drop-off and pick-up was arranged without any trouble, which made arriving in a new country for the first time much easier. The accomodation and location, just at the coast, is great and very clean. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is really really nice. Met the most incredible people during my stay and would definitely recommend anybody who visits Sri Lanka to stay here! See you later, The Surfer!

I had such a great time here meeting a lot of really lovely people. The surf instructors are all very experienced and knowledgeable, ready to answer any questions and assist with anything you need help with. The location is great, all the staff are very friendly and there is a good balance between down time and social time depending on what you’re after! I opted for two sessions a day for one week which works out to about 2/3 days only being one session. Although it can be very tiring if you’re new to surfing, for me it was worth it getting in as many hours surfing as possible!

Me and my friend stayed here for one week at the beginning of our trip to Sri Lanka but liked it so much that we came back for our last week. The accommodations are good, surf lessons nice, the instructors knows what they are doing and the activities during the evenings are so fun. I would really recommend this camp for anyone who wants to surf, party, meet friends or just hang around and have the best time of their life. We’ll be back soon!!

The Surfer Camp is next to the ocean where as a beginner you would learn to surf with very qualified and absolute fun trainers. If you are more advanced, the spots are just walking distance from the club. The best part of the club however, is the professionalism with with the camp is organized. Classes were regular and timely AND most importantly, the surf boards were brand new and in good shape. But if you are looking for more than just surfing, Surfer club has somehow managed to maintain a vibe that allows you to make friends instantly and well after that each night is a party if you'd want to. My husband and I did a course with the club for 5 days and left (rather sad that we had to leave) home with memories of surfing, water, clubs, music, amazing cafe food, worldly conversations and most of all some amazing friends. Would absolutely recommend you to choose the club, they know safety and they know fun!

Want to share my awesome experience in this camp. I have stayed here for 8 days with a full surf package with yoga and I've got as much fun as possible. The owner is very attentive, responsive and helpful . The camp itself is very cozy and clean. Food in the restaurant is very good and the staff always try to keep it up. Every evening was memorable because there are different events which unite surfers from all over the world. The surf teachers should be prized separately. They are always helping during the lessons either with comments or actions. Overall if you want to have active, cool and unforgettable stay with a lots of fun I recommend The Surfer Camp and I can predict that it won't disappoint you.

I went there with a friend in February. I never really surfed before and was quite excited. The staff and instructors were great. They keep the groups small and give many individual advice. I also loved Betty's yoga lessons (on the roof top at sunset) and the great food which you can choose every morning and evening. Staying at the hostel is a must! Nice dorm and private rooms and a chill out area with ocean view. It's super easy to get in touch with other people since there're many activities and parties going on every night. I actually loved it that much that I went there for another week in March. Thanks for everything, I'll be back.

One of the best experiences ever. I’ve never surfed before and the instructors Kusa and Rio helped me to catch 5 waves in my first session. The hotel is perfect. Friendly staff, really clean, cool rooms and facilities, the roof top bar/restaurant is great for chilling out after a long days surfing. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much.

A fun and chill surf camp! Such good value because of the quality of the instructors (especially Anni!), rooms, food, rooftop common area, social activities, video reviews, and location right on a great beginner surfing beach. The staff is super supportive. I improved so much more than I expected throughout my week there. Highly recommend!

I was supposed to stay for 10 days but I loved so much the energy of this place that I extended for one more week! It was one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve had during my travels in Sri Lanka! The staff is incredible, the vibe is amazing, the food is great and the surf instructors are top notch! For the first time I truly felt like I could surf because the coaches provided feedback and were always there for you if you had any questions! Highly recommend it! Will come back for sure, and bring my siblings along next time! 😍

This hostel was really cool. It felt like a friendly little community all super keen to catch some waves and progress in their surfing. Great, welcoming staff, good food and a lot of fun activities to do in the evening when you’re not surfing. Surf lessons were very organized and even for an intermediate surfer, they could still teach you and show you some really cool waves to suit your level. Great atmosphere to meet people. Highly recommend!

I had an excellent time at The Surfer. I took a Single room for a week, where I surfed everyday and got to do Yoga with Zoey. The surf instructors were great, giving feedback at every turn. The yoga was also amazing, it was my first time and I found it to be a great experience. They served great food and planned really fun activities every night, within and outside of the camp. Honestly a great time, everyone was super friendly, and I would highly recommend it!

I had an amazing time at the Surfer! If you are looking for a place where you can improve your surfing, enjoy good company and just relax; this is where you want to be. The Surfer has a nice package which include accomodation, breakfast/dinner and surfing lessons. But they are also really flexible to think with you if you have other needs. I want to thank all people working at the Surfer for making this an experience I will never forget. Keep up the good work. Cheers!

We were two in the surf camp and had a private room with balcony which was very nice. From the balcony you have a beautiful view of the sea. Compared to other surf schools, the "The Surfer" is cheaper in price, but it is not behind in any points. Breakfast, dinner, surfing and video analysis was all included. On the roof terrace you have great opportunities to rest, eat or make new contacts in a family atmosphere. The staff and the surf instructors are also very nice and I could learn a lot about surfing. Gladly we come again!👍🏼

We had the most amazing time we could imagine at The Surfer! 😊 First of all: the staff is so friendly, helpful and can create an incredible stay. We booked one week in the Camp TS2 but extended after some days to two weeks because we felt so comfortable and home here. 🥹 Just everything was great: the Surf instructors, the food (especially the “special” dinner), the evening activities and the whole location. If you want to learn or improve your Surfing you should go here. You will have an amazing time. ✨ We were able to improve our surfing a lot and can not wait to come back again! 😊

Do yourself a favor and stay here! My experience was amazing. The instructors are really dedicated and passionate to teach you how to surf. The camp itself has a very welcoming relax vibe. On a almost daily basis they will organize events after the surfing/yoga sessions so you will never be bored. From bonfire, bar hopping, quiz nights, boat trips etc. Of course you can always opt out and relax or do something on your own. But I definitely enjoyed meeting new cool people from all around the world from all age groups. It felt like being part of 1 big team there from first time surfers to more advanced. The rooms are clean. Food is good. Staff is friendly. The location great. Just perfect.

Great place , great people , amazing staff, amazing food and atmosphere . I stayed for more than 2 weeks and had a really good time out there. The surf and yoga lessons are very well designed and managed by experts. You need to experience this place definitely with great vibes all the time and a beautiful location . Look forward to see you guys again , cheers !!

It was my first time in a surf camp and I'm impressed. Great location by the beach. Basics are well explained for surfing beginners, using practical and theoretical part. Friendly, fun and family atmosphere. Staff is helpful and kindly. The Host is everything take care and also very helpful. i enjoyed very well! Thanks for hospitality!

Best adventure! “It was one of the best adventure trips ever! 🌴🌊🏄‍♀️ It's not simply about surfing but equally about the sense of community you will experience there: 🏄🏻‍♂️ All staff were super relaxed and friendly, which was reflected in the camp atmosphere. The lessons are well structured and give you the full surfing experience. You honestly can improve with every session 🏄🏻‍♂️ Well balanced schedule with times for meals, surfing, video analysis and parties 🏄🏻‍♂️ Pleasant amenities with a spacious communal area 🏄🏻‍♂️ Food served was excellent and great fun vibes in the evening. 🏄🏻‍♂️ Weligama beach has ideal conditions for beginners and intermediate surfers - you won't feel intimidated by big waves but will get challenged enough to get out of your comfort zone.” Massive thanks to all of the staff - you all make this place incredible! Would highly recommend The Surfer Camp to anyone looking to try surfing, and who wants to experience the whole coastal, surf trip vibe! Already looking forward to going back! 🤙

Truly a surfer Paradise! I booked two days in advance and was very lucky that there was still one last double room available in the second Hostel (TS2), which is about 2.5 km from the Camp and was super easy and flexible to get to with my rented scooter. Normally everything is fully booked several weeks in advance, which I can now understand. The entire complex is very well maintained, modern and very new. You can see the attention to detail and I felt right at home from the very first second. Surf instructors very competent (with video analysis), friendly owner + staff, very good surfboards, surf shirts, wax, pool, outside shower, super facility with sea view, roof terrace, yoga, movie nights, parties, social games, delicious food and fair prices. The Surfer Surf Camp Sri Lanka is really a very recommendable Surf camp, would love to come back a second time.🩵 #FF7

It was a really nice week in The Surfer. Surfing and yoga was great. I have seen a lot of animals. The accommodation was modern and the restaurant served amazing food. It was a really good time there! The staff was super friendly and helpful. Big thanks to all the surf instructors who showed me the first steps in surfing. I am very glad that I chose this camp and will come back next year for sure.

Our Sri Lankan tour kicked off perfectly, starting with a friendly airport pickup and a supportive driver. The staff at Surfers were incredibly welcoming, giving us that family-like vibe. We was one of only 2 families with kids (12), felt right at home. Throughout our stay, everything was fantastic – from surf lessons for beginners and pros to delicious food, comfortable rooms, and an ideal location. The rooftop yoga sessions during sunset were pure magic, and the video analytics added a fun and helpful touch. Manager Lahir was not only friendly but also went out of his way to ensure the best experience for all visitors. If you're planning a surf week, whether you're a beginner or a pro, this place is a must-visit!
