Surf and Yoga in Mirissa was the best place I could have wished for. The second I arrived I was warmly welcomed by Jay the manager who is not only a really helpful but also kind and caring person who is working really hard so everyone has an amazing time there. The food was really good and it was lovely to eat together like a family!! The Yoga classes are nice as well and good for every level, the location is so pretty and feels like a jungle when you’re inside. Wherever you meet someone you get a warm smile and feel very welcomed. My surf instructor Bande was so patient and did a great job with learning me how to surf and was so dedicated that I would catch waves and have fun at surfing. The groups were really small so it often felt like a 1:1 lesson which was great for making progress!! Lucie the photographer is doing a great job and I got some really good pictures of mine :)
I definitely recommend to anybody staying at Surf and Yoga Mirissa!!!
We had an incredible time at Surf & Yoga Mirissa! We initially booked just three nights because we had read that it was the off-season on Sri Lanka's south coast. But we loved it so much that we ended up extending our stay by an entire week!
The weather was surprisingly great - warm, sunny, and the surf conditions were ideal for beginners, with small, manageable waves. The yoga classes were just as wonderful, and because the groups were small, the instructor was able to tailor each session to the guests' individual needs and preferences.
The whole atmosphere at the camp was so warm, welcoming, and felt like one big family. From the easy and friendly check-in with Jay to Hasi's absolutely delicious dinners, everything was amazing. The Sri Lankan cooking class was an absolute highlight of our stay!
After a week and a half, we truly felt like part of a little family, and we're already missing the camp. Thank you so much for everything - we can't wait to come back!
Had the best time at Surf and Yoga Camp in Mirissa. Everything is so well organised, but it still feels super relaxed and easy.
The surf instructors are incredibly experienced and also just really fun to be around. Big shout out to Madu, he genuinely takes the time to teach you properly, not just get you up on the board. The yoga teachers are so experienced and kind - there’s multiple kinds of yoga, at regular intervals throughout the day!
What I loved is that there are so many ways to improve if you want to, like optional video analysis in the evenings and even pool sessions to build confidence. But there’s zero pressure, you can also just chill.
The food was amazing, all vegetarian and so fresh. Chef Hasi did a cooking class with us where we learned how to make curry, sambal and coconut roti from scratch in under 30 minutes, which was such a highlight.
The rooms are beautiful, the whole place feels calm and a bit resort-like. Jay, the camp manager, is the best and the whole team makes you feel like family. Such a safe, warm vibe.
Definitely worth it if you want a fun but genuinely relaxing break ☀️
I had such an amazing experience at this Surf & Yoga Camp in Mirissa! 🌊✨
From the moment I arrived, everything felt incredibly welcoming and well-organized. A special thank you to Jay from the staff, who made extra wishes possible.
The food deserves a massive shoutout — absolutely outstanding! As someone with gluten-free needs, I felt so well looked after. The kitchen team was incredibly accommodating, and every meal was delicious and thoughtfully prepared.
The surf instructors were fantastic as well — supportive, skilled, and fun, making every session enjoyable whether you’re a beginner or more experienced.
Honestly, everything was just great. The only small tip I’d give future guests is to book your surf lessons in advance as part of a package, since booking them on-site can be a bit more expensive as an add-on.
Other than that — truly top in every way. I’d come back anytime! 💛
I had an amazing stay at Surf & Yoga! The staff are so friendly and welcoming, Jay makes you feel very at home & is so helpful answering any questions. Hasith, Simon & the crew in the kitchen cook amazing food & have huge hearts to match! The surf instructors are approachable & make learning fun. Overall, highly recommend!! 🫶🫶🫶
