Sri Lanka – exotic at every step and filled with kiteboarding each day.

Charming with its rich and majestic nature, an island in the Indian Ocean, known to many as the ancient Ceylon and today often referred to simply as paradise on Earth – Sri Lanka. From authentic preserved ancient temples, unique flora and fauna, tea plantations, the island’s signature train route, to the most beautiful beaches, globally renowned surfing spots, and some of the best conditions for catching the wind during the Europe’s cooler seasons. However, during that time, the temperature on the island is anything but cooler, as the thermometer usually reaches around 30 degrees Celsius even in the winter months. One probably cannot even dream of a better place for a winter vacation!

The island features two large lagoons characterized by a flat water and shallow shores. There’s a warm, light wind blowing at around 12-25 knots. Usually, at noon (sometimes earlier) the wind picks up and lasts until the evening, creating excellent conditions with approximately 25 knots of wind speed to accompany the sunset. These conditions are ideal for various disciplines, from freestyle, wing, hydrofoil, strappless freestyle, and even beginner wave riding. A small dune at the top of the lagoon covers the riding area from waves, creating the desired flat water, so much sought after by many riders. Additionally, boats can be used to reach unique, secret spots or embark on a downwind journey in the lagoon and/or the Indian Ocean.
