Our delicious breakfast options are available from 7 am to 11:30 am at the surf hotel in Hiriketiya. Free tea and coffee are available every day until 6 pm. Our breakfast with a choice of a fresh fruit juices, a starter such as a fruit salad or pancakes, and a main course like eggs or curries is included in the camp price.

The cost of living in Sri Lanka is fairly low. A healthy and filling meal (e.g. fish with a side dish) costs around 3 €.

Our restaurants in the Hiriketiya surf camp and beachside offer a variety of Sri Lankan dishes.
In Hiriketiya there are several good restaurants with high-quality food that cater to western tastes.
