Description
Hello!
We are a surf-skate hostel located in the village of Arugam Bay, we first opened in August 2023 and are currently open for the Arugam Bay season 2025! We are a surf-skating hostel, we are proud to have opened Arugam Bays first ever skate park! Our high season runs from May-October!
The skate park is within our hostel along with dorm rooms, a private room, basketball ring, restaurant and communal areas.
We are a backpackers hostel that is becoming quite popular, especially among those who share the interest of skating. Our skate park is open for everyone, free to use for our guests and any visitors. We also organise surf trips daily, safaris and camping trips!
The hostel is located outside of town of Arugam Bay. Please note: it is around a 10-15 minute walk.
At our hostel, we have chosen to help the local kids with learning English, whilst they also boost their skate skills - so we are looking for a volunteer.
