The camp

Be Cool is a surf school first and a place to sleep second. It has taught off Weligama Beach Road since 2013, and the whole week hangs on the lesson, with never more than three students to a coach. Groups run on three levels: beginner, intermediate, advanced.

That ratio pays off on the inside of the bay. Sand underfoot, a left that starts a long way from the beach, standing depth well out, and a wave that works at every tide, so the lesson happens when it is scheduled rather than when the water allows. The full surf week fits in two a day, morning and afternoon, ten in all: seventy-five minutes at the first two levels, two hours at level three. Add a surf-skate session and two rounds of video to show you what your feet were doing. The surf and yoga week keeps the five morning lessons, swaps the afternoon ones for five yoga classes, and costs €30 less.

The accommodation is where the page goes quiet. Seven nights by the beach is all you are told: no room type, no photo. Six breakfasts and no dinners, so the evenings belong to the village, with a beach club for the sunset and restaurants built out on the rocks over the water. Bonfires and community nights get a mention and nothing more.

Book it for the coaching, and ask to see the room before you pay.

Frequently asked questions

  • Do I need to be able to surf already?

    No. Level one is for beginners, with seventy-five minute lessons and no more than three students to a coach. Weligama Bay suits it: a sandy bottom, standing depth well out, and a wave that works at every tide. Level three moves up to two-hour lessons.

  • What is not included?

    Every dinner, and lunches: only six breakfasts are in the price, along with water and wifi. The board is lent for lessons, not outside them. No airport transfer is mentioned, and Colombo is two and a half to three hours away by road, so budget for it separately.

  • Why is the surf and yoga week cheaper?

    Because it holds half the surfing: five lessons instead of ten, and one video session instead of two. The five yoga classes take the place of the afternoon lessons. At €420 against €450, the full surf week is the one to take if surfing is why you are going.
