About this spot:

Amazing flat water location with very laid back atmosphere and friendly people. There are two seasons for kitesurfing in Sri Lanka - winter from mid December to early April and summer from May to October. Plenty of kite schools, yoga, beach parties and likeminded people on the island will make you holiday unforgettable. Check out the downwinder options - from the Vella island and to the Puttalam lagoon.
