Solas Surf - Ahangama

Surf and yoga retreat along Kabalana Beach

Surf & Yoga Experiences

Solas Surf offers tailored surf lessons for all skill levels with a low student-to-instructor ratio, ensuring personalized guidance from certified coach Amila. The property also provides daily yoga sessions in a dedicated beachfront shala, taught by instructors like Francesco and Alanah, who lead sunrise and sunset classes. Guests can supplement their practice with Muay Thai classes held three times a week at the Solas Shambala area right by the beach.

Dining & Cuisine

The on-site restaurant serves gourmet meals using organic, locally sourced ingredients, with a menu including fresh seafood, locally inspired curries, and daily specials like savory jackfruit balls and tuna tartare. Breakfasts are continental, à la carte, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free, featuring fresh fruits and homemade sourdough. Dinner options change daily, with outdoor seating overlooking the beach and garden, and many guests report it as the best food in Ahangama.

Accommodation & Facilities

The property consists of only four rooms, ensuring a quiet, private atmosphere with direct beachfront access and lush garden surroundings. Each room is air-conditioned, includes a private bathroom with walk-in shower, and offers ocean views from a shared balcony or ground-floor garden space. The outdoor swimming pool with beachfront views, sun loungers, and a large lawn provide spaces for relaxation and meditation, while free private parking is available on site.

Wellness & Additional Activities

Beyond surfing and yoga, Solas Surf Ahangama offers breathwork sessions led by Gianluca, sound healing, and in-house massages with mint oil. Guests can also join Muay Thai classes with coach Kush, who provides a fun full-body workout. The villa maintains a small library of handpan tunes and organizes guided excursions such as tea plantation tours and trips to Galle Fort and Mirissa for whale watching.

Location & Surroundings

Solas Surf sits directly on Kabalana Beach, between the popular surf breaks 'The Rock' and 'Sticks', making it a prime spot for surfers of all levels. The beach itself is soft sand with no rocks, ideal for swimming, and the area is quiet yet within a 15-minute walk to Ahangama's main town with trendy cafés and restaurants. Koggala Airport is 5 km away, and nearby attractions include Galle Fort (a UNESCO site) and Delawalla Beach for turtle sightings.
