We are staying in Colombo. Can we spend the afternoon wakeboarding on Bolgoda Lake and still make it back to the city in time for the rooftop DJ parties.

Absolutely. Bolgoda Lake is only about a 45 minute drive from central Colombo depending on traffic. You can book an afternoon session with the local wakeboard clubs, get some glassy water runs in behind a Mastercraft boat, and head back to the city by sunset. You will easily have enough time to shower and hit the Port City Beach Club or the rooftop lounges in Kollupitiya by 9 PM.

Book your Uber back to the city in advance. Getting a ride out of the deep residential roads around Bolgoda Lake around rush hour can be slightly annoying.

Take a shower immediately after wakeboarding there. The lake water can sometimes irritate your skin if you leave it on too long.

The water at Bolgoda is brackish and completely flat. It is the best wakeboarding spot on the island. Look out for the massive water monitors swimming by the mangroves.

If you want progressive house music, the C VIBES rooftop in Colombo is currently booking some of the best local talent on Saturday nights.
