YOUR NEXT
little breakthrough.
A private beginner lesson gives you space to ask questions, repeat the foundations, and feel more comfortable in the ocean. Your instructor chooses the session area around your experience and the conditions. Early progress is welcome here, too: you do not have to be a complete first-timer.
What we work on
- Beach practice and a clear introduction to your board
- Pop-up practice and finding your balance
- In-water coaching at a pace that suits you
A little preparation
Bring comfortable swimwear, a towel, drinking water, and your usual sun protection. Tell us about any questions or particular needs when you inquire. We’ll confirm your session time, meeting arrangements, and total price.
GOOD TO know.
How long is a lesson, and what’s included?
Every surf lesson is 90 minutes, including beach practice and in-water coaching. Your surfboard, rash guard, and zinc are included. Bring your swimwear, a towel, drinking water, and your usual sun protection.
Can we learn together as a family or a couple?
Yes. Couple lessons and group lessons are available. Our group lesson needs at least five people and costs LKR 5,000 per person. Tell us everyone’s ages and experience so we can recommend a suitable arrangement. Beginner couple lessons are LKR 6,000 per person (LKR 12,000 for two). Intermediate couple lessons are LKR 7,000 per person (LKR 14,000 for two).
What if the waves aren’t suitable at Kabalana?
We plan around the conditions and your ability. For intermediate lessons, if Kabalana is not suitable, we can take you to another spot. Tuk tuk transport is included in the intermediate package, with no extra transport charge. We’ll confirm the plan with you.
