One of the key places with all the right conditions to kite surf is Kalpitiya, located about 95 km from Colombo, this sandy peninsula with the Indian Ocean on one side and the Kalpitiya lagoon on the others offers a covered heaven for kite surfers. You can either carry your own gear or hire from the local club at an hourly rate. They will have instructors to help beginners, word of caution though is to have training before you try it as it will save you from broken bones and costly medical bills. Once you’ve mastered it check out the little sandy islets around the mouth of the lagoon and maybe even run with the Dolphins.
