My instructor was very patient and kind, he explained things so well. They were also very accommodating with me as I had food poisoning the day of my booking and allowed me to reschedule for another time. I was able to catch and ride a few waves and felt such an enjoyable experience for my first time. Highly recommend this surf school ☺️🌊

I started as a complete beginner, and Danny helped me reach a level I never expected so quickly. He explained everything really well, pushed me in a positive way, and gave me the confidence you need in surfing. Danny knows exactly how to motivate you and help you grow without ever making you feel overwhelmed. I always felt safe, supported, and encouraged. If you’re looking for a great surf coach who truly helps you improve, Danny is the one.
Great day

I was not planning to try surfing but Danny encouraged me to try and safe to say it was one of the best experiences. Danny was such a patient instructor and made sure both of us had the time of our lives. We got to use their sunbed all day and they even helped us sort our lunch. Had the best time in Weligama despite it being the off season. Would definitely visit again when in Sri Lanka. Huge thanks to Danny and blue waves surf school.
great for beginners!!

I had never surfed and in less than an hour, thanks to the great advice of my coach, I could surf the waves. The team is really adorable, smiling, a great time shared. My teacher was attentive and caring for me. The beach is full of surf school but it is without hesitation that I recommend!
Perfect.
