  • 5 years ago there was 1 little beach bar on Hiriketiya Beach  I learned to do turtle rolls and surf green waves here  and afterwards we would sip on coconuts on the beach  It is one of my favorite swimming spots in Sri Lanka because it remains fairly protected year-round from wind and swell  and the water is crystal clear   Fast forward a few years - this horseshoe-shaped bay is booming with visitors  and the secret is out  Hiriketiya Bay could possibly be the most beautiful beach in all of Sri Lanka  It   s scary how quickly things have changed  but if all goes to plan the local business owners are dedicated to transforming Hiriketiya into a sustainable destination and community   Here are some quick tips for visiting Hiriketiya        consider visiting during the off peak months  Most people only visit the south coast from November to February March  but it   s actually lovely all year round - with the exception of a few days here and there it very rarely pours for weeks on end     leave no trace - take all your trash with you and don   t leave them on the beaches     dress appropriately - it is not respectful to walk around the village in skimpy clothes or your swimwear  Save the swimwear for the actual beach     bring a reusable bottle bag  Most places have large water dispensers where you can fill your bottle     surf responsibly - especially when there are crowds of people in the water  No one likes being hit in the head by a surfboard     use the bay as a base for exploring the south coast  Udawalawe Yala national parks are approximately two hours away and Galle is a 50-60 minute drive away     ask if your accommodation recycles their trash  The local council is implementing garbage recycling or there are services that organize recycling for a small fee     tipping is not really expected in Sri Lanka  especially if a service charge has already been applied  But it is always appreciated by those in the hospitality and transportation industry  We are in the process of opening a pair of pool villas here - follow along at  samandlolas for updates    srilanka  visitsrilanka  hiriketiya  yogasrilanka  amazingSL  exploresrilanka  srilankatoday  hashtagsrilanka  srilankatourism
  • Staycations for the win       My boyfriend and I have been absolutely swamped with work  me with Yoga  Wine   Travel and  samandlolas and him with Sam   Lola   s   talalla surf AND  stolenparadise lk  So what do we do  Book a last-minute time out to hit reset and spend some quality time together  We always end up going to the same places that we love in Sri Lanka  so as an early Christmas present to ourselves we booked a staycation at none other than Cape Weligama   Believe me when I tell you that it is one of the best luxury hotels in Sri Lanka - the hospitality is quintessentially Sri Lankan and the views are to die for  Not to mention they have some of the most experienced and award-winning mixologists on the island       If you   ve been thinking about treating yourself to a little local getaway  do it - you deserve it    srilanka  visitsrilanka  weligama  yogasrilanka  amazingSL  exploresrilanka  srilankatoday  hashtagsrilanka  srilankatourism

  • 5 years ago I had no idea where Sri Lanka was  I decided one night at 4 AM that I was going to learn to surf  so I googled    best surf camps in Asia     emailed all of them  and a surf camp in Sri Lanka was the first to get back to me     Why not     I thought to myself  and booked myself in for 2 weeks of surf   Yoga and hopped on a plane  I   m fairly sure that all my friends were convinced that I was having a quarter life crisis  but that random  impulsive decision changed my life and I haven   t looked back since   Have you ever made a last-minute decision that worked out for the best    srilanka  visitsrilanka  stiltfishermen  yogasrilanka  amazingSL  exploresrilanka  srilankatoday  hashtagsrilanka  srilankatourism
  • Any guesses what this island off the coast of Weligama is   A  Prison B  Temple C  Hotel D  Abandoned property E  Someone   s private house  Hint  It   s only reachable on foot during low tide    srilanka  visitsrilanka  weligama  yogasrilanka  amazingSL  exploresrilanka  srilankatoday  hashtagsrilanka  srilankatourism
  • Even after 400 years  Galle Fort has maintained its polished appearance after extensive reconstruction following the tsunami that devastated Sri Lanka in 2004   Much of the local community are descendants of spice traders from Morocco  and tuk tuks still zip through pedestrian traffic along narrow lane ways   There are strict renovation and restoration guidelines set by UNESCO and the Archeological Department of Sri Lanka  which ensures that the unique architectural styles are preserved within the fort and that the heritage value is protected   Stop for lunch at Sugar or Minute by Tuk Tuk  walk along the fort ramparts  shop at Barefoot  Stick No Bills or Stolen Paradise  go for a massage at Spa Ceylon and grab a gelato from Isle of Gelato  Top it all off with tea at Amangalle and sunset cocktails    srilanka  visitsrilanka  gallefort  yogasrilanka  amazingSL  exploresrilanka  srilankatoday  hashtagsrilanka  srilankatourism
