Hiriketiya Surfing Beach

Dikwella, Sri Lanka. Also know as Hiriketiya bay or Hiri was hidden and sleepy till backpackers found it 4,5 years back. Located in southern coast of the island, just next door to Dickwella beach (one hour drive from Matara). Without a doubt this is one of the premiere beach of down south. The road is not of a good quality and the sign boards are yet to be placed. But never miss to visit this hidden gem.


This bay is guarded by a rocky mountain. The horse shoe shape of the bay keeps winds away making swimming and surfing conditions safe all year round. With waves rolling in almost all the year Hiriketiya beach matches the requirements of all grade of surfers, even to learn to ride the waves or to take your surfing experience to a next level. This beach is simply magical. Surfers from all around the world gather here to practice surfing. You can relax and have a greater time watching the surfers in action and enjoy the good vibes.
