Location
When you come to Sri Lanka you’ll find it to be a place of life abundant with rich culture, the rainforest, the desert and of course, its magnificent wave combination.
Hippy Surf Camp is 1 minute walk from the beach. There is a main reef break where you get the best consistent waves in the island called A to Frame. But also there is a beach break for more beginners and intermediate to practice basics and sharpen their skills. There are several other different spots for different levels and boards from beginners & intermediate levels to longboard nose riders within a short tuk tuk ride.
The town centre is 15 minutes walk and 5 min tuk tuk ride where you can find an ATM, fruit and vegetable market, supermarkets, pharmacies, liquor stores etc.
Hikkaduwa also offers you to have nice dinners in fancy restaurants and enjoy good budget foods. There are nice bars and restaurants in the area and night clubs to hang out. But the beach is always peaceful and has the best sunset in the southwest coast of Sri Lanka.
