Great experience

5.00Had such an amazing surf experience in Sri Lanka. More than just a surf instructor, he made me experience the real Sri Lankan surf vibe. Always patient, positive and making sure I felt safe and comfortable in the water. Every session was fun, relaxed and authentic, and I improved so much without even realizing it. The energy, knowledge and passion for surfing honestly made this one of the best parts of my trip. Truly good vibes from beginning to end! Thank so much!
Great surf lessons from Apple at Lucky’s Surf Camp

5.00I spent the last two weeks of April 2026 at Lucky’s surf camp. My primary surf instructor as an advanced beginner / intermediate was Apple, also known as Podi. He was an excellent instructor - highly knowledgeable having grown up surfing around Weligama Bay, passionately committed to helping his students improve, with a keen understand of when to push and when to ease up, but always challenging his students to learn and excel. Thanks to Apple, I caught my first big wave with a pop up on top rather than at the bottom. He’s also a charming young man.
wonderful 5 star experience with Apple

5.00I booked straight with them via WhatsApp which was a very easy process. We started at 9:30 AM with a private 3 person beginner lesson and met one of the brothers on the beach. This is a small business with guys that have grown up at this beach and know it very well. We started with a fun and goofy warm-up and then an intro to surfing with great tips on how to pop-up and a safety talk. Apple then took us out into the warm water and would help us onto the boards and give us a little push timed well the waves and then give us verbal instructions on when to stand up. At the end of the lesson we are all able to stand up and ride and some of us even were able to paddle and catch a wave solo without the push assistance and verbal cuing. At the end, Apple gave us each very insightful and personalized feedback on our common mistakes and how to improve them. Paula was also at the beach and took pictures and videos of us and sent them to us after the session which was super appreciated as we were obviously unable to. It was wonderful to have pictures and videos of the experience.
Great experience as a first timer

5.00It was my first surf lesson and I felt super cared for. First the basics were explained on land and then we went into the water. My sister and I each had our own surf instructor who explained what was good and what was wrong after each time. After the 3. I was able to try surfing to the stand while standing. I would recommend it to anyone. It was a lot of fun. 😍
Best surfteacher in Weligama :)
