Arugam Bay is a lovely moon-shaped curl of soft sand also known as one of the best beaches in Sri Lanka. It is one of those areas in the world you have to visit at least once in a lifetime. A pristine sandy beach, stunning natural beauty and with a population of just a few hundred, everything is dotted along a single road which parallels the coast.

Home to a famed point break that many regard as the best surf spot in the country, Arugam Bay is considered one of the top 10 surf points in the world. With the world-famous Yala National Park as its neighbor, Arugam Bay is also lucky to be surrounded by loads of wildlife like monkeys, elephants, and crocodiles. The bay is simply an amazing place to be.
