This fair will be a great boon to farmers in the Hulannuge, Lahugala, Korullanpokuna, Masavva, Panama, Ragamvela and Veveyaya areas.

Eastern Province Education Transport, Land Development and Cultural Affairs Minister Wimalaweera Dissanayake said the fair will act as a mode for farmers to sell their produce.

Another long delay between posts a?? must get into the habit of blogging more frequently! In our defence, Stu and I have been on full-time tour guide duty recently, first hosting our friend John from London for a fortnight and then my parents for just over a week.

They don’t like cricket… they love it!

Ita??s been great having the opportunity to catch up with news from home (not to mention getting a vital resupply of gin and books). Wea??ve done a fair bit of touring around the country, along with showing off some of the sights that Arugam Bay has to offer. Wea??re both really loving being here right now and having people here to go ooh and aah at the beautiful beaches and great food has reinforced just how lucky we are.

Arugam Bay: Sri Lanka's Surf Capital

Ia??m sitting in the back of a rather bespoke mini-van: fur lines the floor, stickers speckle the ceiling, and Boney M rocks the stereo. The car has already been stopped by the police twice a?? though not for the crazy interior. Rather, Ia??m in Colombo, heading from the airport to the train station, and, 16 months after the end of the civil war, police stops are as much a part of getting around as horns and dodging stray dogs. My destination? Arugam Bay, the countrya??s surfing capital. Ia??ve tried the sport in Dubai, though not mastered it, mainly due to the flatness of the Gulf a?? as well as the early starts. Instead of hiring a limo a?? an affordable option, no less a?? Ia??ve chosen to brave the 10-hour train journey from Colombo right to Arugam on the east coast.

My first lesson to impart: book ahead. Continue reading ‘My destination? Arugam Bay, the countrya??s surfing capital’

Abay is now on place 4 !
With so many good surf spots around the world, a perfect wave is breaking somewhere right now. What makes a surf spot better than another? Most surfers would agree that the quality of the wave has to be very high. To be the best, it has to break consistently and provide a barrel section where the wave goes hollow. Also, the longer it goes for, the better. Herea??s our list of the best surf spots in the world.

SriLankan Air Taxi takes to the skies again

SriLankan Airlines will re-launch its domestic float plane service – SriLankan Air Taxi – commencing December in time for the winter tourist season.

SriLankan’s Head of Worldwide Sales Mohamed Fazeel said ” We will shortly be adding a new dimension to domestic travel, enabling travellers to reach most parts of the island within 40 minutes. International visitors arriving in Sri Lanka can go straight on to their destinations with convenient connections.”

SriLankan is planning to acquire two Twin Otter aircraft for the operation, each with a capacity of up to 15 passengers.

These twin-engined aircraft are currently being sourced. “SriLankan Air Taxi will supplement the country’s existing land-based domestic air services, as there are many parts of the country in which aerodromes are not conveniently located, but there are plenty of rivers and lakes that can serve as waterdromes.
