I know November is the end of the season for the East Coast. Are the yoga shalas and surf schools in Arugam Bay still open for wellness retreats, or is everything shut down.

By November, the northeast monsoon starts bringing rain to Arugam Bay, and the main point break loses its classic shape. While the massive crowds are gone, a few dedicated wellness spaces like Hideaway Resort keep their yoga shalas open year round. It is actually a deeply peaceful time for a meditation retreat, but do not expect world class surfing.

If you are set on surfing in November, you should really head to the south coast like Weligama or Hiriketiya, where the season is just starting and the yoga scene is massive.
