Is Arugam Bay good for complete beginner surfers.
2 Answers from travellers
Arugam Bay is actually fantastic for beginners thanks to a dedicated beginner spot called Baby Point located right in the main bay. The waves there are gentle, slow rolling, and break over a sandy bottom which is perfect for first time surfers. The famous Main Point is reserved for intermediate and advanced surfers but Baby Point is just a five minute walk away.
Group lessons cost around twenty five dollars for two hours including the surfboard rental and rashguard. Most schools guarantee you will stand up and ride a wave during your very first lesson. The official surf season runs from May through September when the waves are most consistent.
