Solas Surf

Everybody comes for the beach.

We know. We get it.

But just in case you will be in the mood for no waves, no tides, no sand, you can float the day away in our ocean-overlooking pool.

A bonus that doesn’t appear on the booking page:
Cuddles from our Jane. 🐾

But it’s more than that.

It’s the warm smiles from the team.
The love in handmade pastries fresh from the oven.
The steady support from our coaches when you try something new.
The personal way everything is done here.

If you value places with soul, care, and gentle precision, you’ll feel at home at SOLAS Surf.

Come stay with us and experience the island beyond the surf.

For example, did you know that stilt fishing, seen here, was born along this coast after World War II, when food was scarce, and fishing grounds were crowded?

Instead of giving up, local fishermen got creative. Wooden poles. Metal rods. Elevated above the reef. A new way to fish without boats and without disturbing the seabed.

Practical. Resourceful. Smart.

That’s Sri Lanka, too.

If you have surfed with us, you already know. If not, meet Amila.

Homegrown. Ocean raised. He reads the waves the way others read the news.

Calm energy. Sharp eye. Endless patience.

Whether it’s your first green wave or you are refining your turns, you’ll feel safe, challenged, and quietly proud of yourself by the end of the session.

Want to experience his teaching? Book our Surf & Yoga Package for 7 or 3 days of waves, movement, recovery, and good food.

DM us for details.

Love for Sri Lanka definitely goes through the stomach. Mastering the perfect flavours takes years, but learning how to whip up fresh, vibrant curries is easier than you think.

Our kitchen team is happy to share their tips and tricks, so you can recreate your Sri Lankan favourites at home until your next visit. 🌶️🌴

Ask about our in-house cooking class during your stay. It works beautifully as a personal experience or as part of a retreat program.

Life at SOLAS is built around simple things done well. Good waves, thoughtful movement, proper food, comfortable rooms, and places to pause in between.

SOLAS Surf is a private surf retreat for adults who enjoy adventure travel done well.

Choose one of our ready-made packages and skip the planning, or book just the room and add surf, yoga, or Muay Thai along the way. Group sessions or one on one, always at your own pace.

For inquiries, DM us.

We’re not only about waves and movement.

Our garden corners and shaded nooks are made for slowing down. Read, recharge, meditate, book a massage, or simply sit and take it all in.
Adventure feels better when balance is part of the plan. ☯️

Did you know, that we are a boutique surf retreat for adults who like comfort, freedom, and good waves?

Choose one of our packages or keep it simple with a stay only and add activities along the way.

Planning that annual trip with your best friend? This might be the one you stop scrolling for.

Beachfront villa, pool and lounges, sunset yoga, private surf sessions, Muay Thai if you feel brave, organic homemade food, vibrant Ahangama evenings, and yes, the robes.

DM us, ladies. We’re happy to take care of the details this year. 🌴✨

Breakfasts that turn into brunch.

Light lunches, proper dinners, smoothies, fresh juices, and desserts that somehow still feel like a good idea.

Fuel for surf days, rest days, and everything in between. 🍽️🌊

You’re good at solo travel.

You like having a plan, but not too much of one. A bit of adventure, a bit of calm, comfort when you want it, company when it feels right.

Our surf & yoga packages take care of the essentials. If you prefer to stay flexible, book just the room and add surf, yoga, or Muay Thai as the mood strikes.

Some days end up looking exactly like this. ☝️
