The exchange rate can be a bit confusing at first, so it’s good to have an idea of the quantity you’d like to get in advance:
- £1 gdp = around 224 Sri Lankan Rupee
- £50 = around 11,200 Sri Lankan Rupee
Another useful way to carry money is using a currency card, which you can top up online. A credit card is also useful in case of emergencies.

If you are travelling on a U.K. passport, you will have to apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) in order to enter Sri Lanka, please see this website for more information www.eta.gov.lk.
If you are travelling from outside the U.K. then please check with your own embassy for the latest visa information. We recommend that you book your return ticket before arriving in Sri Lanka. To book in advance and for more information, visit: www.eta.gov.lk.
We advise that you take out personal travel insurance before travelling. In the past, our clients have had a good experience with ‘World Nomads’, the specialist insurance provider for adventure travel.
We’ve got great swells all year round on Sri Lanka’s South coast. The best months for a surf holiday in terms of weather are October through April when our days are filled with sunshine and the surf is generally offshore! May through September are still warm, but get the occasional rain showers that bring rougher conditions with them.
You are welcome to bring your own surf gear. We have plenty of space in our surf camp to store it during your surf holidays. Simply let us know before your arrival, so we can arrange for a big enough car for your airport transfer.
