Arugam bay
A seven hour drive from Colombo to south east, approximately 320 km, take you toA?A?the famous surfing bay of Arugam which is located remote south east part of Sri Lanka close to pottuvil, a famous tourists destination . The pottuvil town, a 4km drive for the bay, is closest town center with majority muslism living in the area. Arugam bay is surrounded by a thick band of jungle about 70 km wide, roaming with wild elephants , tigers and birds , making it a paradise for tourism. Among those jungles are Lahugala National Park which is about 10 miles inland abounded with birdlife migrates to its wetlands and the hugeA?A?YalaA?A?National ParkA?A?which starts about 20 miles to the south.A?A?ArugamA?A?BayA?A?is also the gateway and only access to theA?A?YalaEastA?A?National Park.
On an average day, a wave can stretch as long as 150-300 meters and in a perfect day it could expand up to 500 meters. There are three break points surrounding the arugam bay “The Point”, “Pottuvil Point” and “Crocodile Rock”.
An interesting Evening!

Sri Lanka indeed seems to be an exciting tourist destination among all the others destinations in South Asia and is also renowned for its ancient monuments, as well as other nature spots such as beaches, lakes, mountains and even museum galleries. This country has all that it takes to sooth your souls with all its charm that it exhibits and engulfs. So just in case, you want to see and experience an unusual vacation then this seem to be the best place leaving you behind all those lush green memories.
Amongst all the natural spots in this country, beaches occupy a leading place, since there are many beautiful beaches, which are a good blend of sun and sand. This beautiful combination of the sun and sand has all it takes to make you feel like spending all your life on those beaches. The cool breezes, along with those gusting waves are some of the thoughts that one can never forget. Some of the famous beaches and resorts that are really worth visiting are kalutara, Bentota, Mount Lavina and Arugam Bay and not to forget the most famous of all the Sun Island Resort.
I suppose reading this paragraph would surely give you a glimpse of what this one looks like. The sun island resort is the most beautiful and exotic island that is located near Nalaguraidhoo and is capable enough to capture your hearts and minds because of its exotic tropical flowers and lush green gardens that would take you and remind you about those stunning blue sapphire lagoons.
This resort is located about 65 miles of the male airport and both this place and resort is the most breathe taking picturesque island on the whole of Srilanka. This one is so capable of capturing and kidnapping your minds with its charm and beauty that its known as the living paradise. This is the most noted luxurious beach resort and is considered to be the premiere resort among all the five hotels.
The sun island resort is well known for its beauty and besides its beautiful surrounding its also popular for its sunset view. So hereA?a??a??s is where it got its name form and owes its popularity and fame due to the sunrise and the sunset view that can be enjoyed from this resort.
Moreover, its beautiful beaches are an added attraction that enhances and adds on to its popularity and fame.

What is the surf like in August 2008?
Take a look!A?A?
How did town phone box end up on Sri Lankan beach?
Prilosec for sale
Rhiannon McDowall
30/ 7/2008
AS MAXONIANS fight to save the townA?a??a??s phone boxes, one iconic red kiosk has escaped the chop…by taking root in Sri Lanka!
PrestburyA?a??a??s Tim Heath, 44, was on holiday when he stumbled across a “Whirley Road” kiosk, sitting on the south east coast of the Asian island nation A?a??a?? more than 5,000 miles from home.
He said: “I thought it was unusual to see a red phone box over there, and when I looked inside it got even stranger A?a??a?? I could see it was from Macclesfield and I couldnA?a??a??t believe it!”
Looking Tardis-like and a tad incongruous on the sun-drenched beaches of Arugam Bay, the kioskA?a??a??s poster revealed it had been taken from Whirley Road, near Beaumont Avenue.
But if BT carry out their threat to remove 15 Silk Town kiosks, itA?a??a??s unlikely they will share such a sunny fate because this box was flown out by hotel owner Dr Fred Miller for a A?A?10 bet. And itA?a??a??s uncertain if he was the real winner as it cost him a cool A?A?15,000 in post and packaging to complete the 5,418 mile journey.
Dr Miller, originally from the Isle of Man, revealed he had embarked on a mission to ship two traditional boxes to Sri Lanka in 1987 after a drunken night at the East Coast resort.
He said: “I was working for the Ministry of Defence in Hong Kong where IA?a??a??d lived since 1977 and I had a hotel in Arugam Bay.
“For all those years we didnA?a??a??t have communication and one night we were on the beach, talking about how beautiful it was, and how nice it would be to call home.
“So I said to my friends A?a??a?? I think we can organise that.”
Spurred on by the A?A?10 incentive, Fred then arranged for a military operation to fly the two phone boxes A?a??a?? one from Silk Town and another from Buxton bought at auction in Manchester for A?A?200 A?a??a?? over to Hong Kong and airlifted by helicopter to the hotel.
He said: “It was a stupid bet and we were drunk.
“But we treated it as an army exercise and told people it was a very important delivery in order to have it delivered A?a??a?? I had to pay off a lot of people to get it here.”
The telephone boxes arrived at Siam View hotel in Arugam bay within ten days of making the decision.
Fred said: “It arrived within ten days then we put our own sophisticated telephone system in and called home.”
And the Macclesfield kiosk has proven it is made of stern stuff as it survived the devastating Tsunami of 2004.
Fred said: “The Stockport box was destroyed in the Tsunami but your Macclesfield one survived! The water was about 35ft above it at one point and it got a bit damaged, but weA?a??a??ve repaired it now.”
Fertomid cost DO YOU know of any other Macclesfield landmarks that have ended up in any strange and remote places? If so contact our newsdesk on 01625 424445 or e-mail macclesfieldexpress@menwn.co.uk .

A great idea and a great sign and business-type front!
This place now is sadly neglected and not maintained
Maybe it’s a CEGA/ABTA PVC Recycling project?
Above is just ONE example how a very good idea has gone wrong at Arugam Bay.
CEGA established a Herbal Garden in the back of AbTa’s new, unmanned office building.
This demonstration plot was useful, well thought of and very well established.
But: So was the idea of Tourist Guides, Trash removals, etc…..
However, perhaps unknown to the kind donors of Bergamo, Italy it appears that the wrong local partners were selected:
For many months now, this project has been neglected and the garden is a wasteland.
Nobody watered the plants, nobody seems to be interested in keeping this good projedct going.
Lesson: Buy bactrim antibiotic online
Do not expect to come from any civilized Country and establish ANYTHING in Sri Lanka and then walk away from it!
Like the Tourist Guide project, the rubbish removal system & donated tractor and dozens more:
Nothing will ever work unless a system is left in place to continue the operation.
Sad but true!
What to do?

The Bay has seen the best, by far, Party this weekend!
A few hundred came all the way from Colombo andA?A? some locals also purchased a 1,000Rs./ gate ticket.
The DJ, sound and crowd was good – the setting and nature perfect.
Not everyone has recovered so far.
Below just one glimpse from the Rock the Point Party.
