Arugambay

a??a?? on the East Coast of Sri Lanka used to be a laid back, dreamily indolent sort of locale where fishermen pursued their trade far from the madding bustle of urban zestfulness and commercial excessa??a??a??a??. It still is that way!

But it certainly has jumped into the tourism map of the world with the outstanding holiday experience that it offers.A? For one, it is ranked one of the Top 10 surfing beaches in the world. Arugambay Point, Pottuvil point, Peanut Farm, Kormari and Panama are now buzzwords (buzz places!) among the avid of surfersa?? community worldwide.

However, Arugambay is a great deal more than bronzed physiques in motion raising the crystalline sand or cruising perilously over the ocean swells. Imagine the sheer joy one feels encountering Dolphins in their cheering habitat!!A? For that is exactly what becomes possible to visitors in the season of September.

On shore and inward from the coast, the allure of the wild continues to delighta??a??

For here, the inner yearning of the human spirit to know the confluence it possesses with naturea??s bounty in birds in their natural space by the lagoon and to Purchase toradol injection observe elephants as they roam nonchalantly in front of Crocodile Rock, finds fulfillment. Indeed, Arugambay nestles on the edge of a verdant forest reserve.

While on the subject, not far away in Uda Walawe Continue reading ‘Arugambay is just too good to let go! Be sure youa??ve been there!!’

Point Breaks and Machine guns Fosamax price in pakistan

Ia??m not going to lie to you, ita??s been a surreal 48 hours. We left Unawatuna and Shangri la, our tropical garden paradise with slightly heavy hearts and, Ia??ll be honest, a bit of a hangover.A? The night before we left Sarah left me in the company of two NGO types and a bottle of Arrack (coconut scotch) and a bottle of vodka. A lot of storytelling later I rolled into bed and snored my way through the four hours left til dawn and the seven hour trip to Arugam Bay. We were packed on our way by Nanda, a very sweet guy who lost his wife in the tsunami and struggles to earn enough money to pay his chef Charmin each day. He got up at 0430 and made us papaya salad with chilli and cucumber for our journey. Herea??s a photo of this lovely man in his restaurant cum grocery store (something akin to the Falafel King for just what oddities he sells for those of you who are familiar).

Top selling Mexican beers to be produced in Eastern Sri Lanka
(CORONA is slightly less popular since end 2019)

 

Corona (Corona Extra) is a brand of pale lager owned and produced by Cerveceria Modelo in Mexico.

Corona Extra. The Mexican top selling beer

Outside of Mexico, Corona is to be slightly renamed and will be produced in a new brewery to be constructed at Arugam Bay. A world famous Surf spot and upcoming tourist resort situated in the deep South East of remote Sri Lanka.

To distinguish the new Sri Lanka Export product from the original Mexican label, and in recognition and celebration of local achievements following the end of the long ongoing conflict in Sri Lanka, the following brand name has been proposed:

Caruna Extra. Export to Asian markets only

For this purpose the Mexican global leaders have teamed up with the award winning, but widely unknown Arugam Bay Surfer’s Beer label under an agreement with the Sri Lanka Government and its Board of Investment Authority.

Cerveceria Modelo’s chairman Senioria Condolenzza Gogonzola stated that the Company has welcomed branching out to new markets in the East.
Corona is a traditional Cult Beer favored by young, active people and is popular with modern party people.

Producer Marijke van der Meer was holidaying in Sri Lanka when disaster struck in December 2004. Her personal report from one of the country’s devastated towns told of the harrowing situation there and the desperate need for aid.

Award winning (Re-) Broadcast on 1st March, 2010 How to order allopurinol online
In the southeastern Sri Lankan coastal town of Pottovil – a town with an ethnic mix of Singhalese and Tamils, Muslims and Buddhists – a golden statue of Buddha stares serenely over Arugam Bay. The bay was a Mecca for surfers, who stayed in guesthouses with names such as Chill Space Surf, Hideaway, Aloha and even the Tsunami Beach Hotel. The statue of Buddha is one of the few fully intact constructions in this demolished town where a thick layer of muddy dirt covers the ground.

Soldiers look on as bulldozers shove aside trees and bricks from destroyed dwellings. The bodies of some 1,000 people – killed within a few seconds of the tsunami – have been recovered.

‘Scribblings from the Surf’ – : Surfers Saving the World

Published on 01/03/2010 in Blogs, Money Matters, people, press coverage and the bay. 0 Comments

The nineth in a series entitled ‘Scribblings from the Surf’ for Devon Life. To read the article see the text below or click to enlarge the pictures of the original article below that. To see the whole series, click here. SURFERS SAVING THE WORLD Barrister and writer Tim Kevan meets two surfers helping to save the world. Many people might have the impression of the standard surfer as a flaky, spaced out Californian dude who doesna??t actually get much done other than stare out to sea and catch the odd wave. But that image couldna??t be further from the truth when it comes to those who surf the English waters since youa??ve got to have just a modicum of fortitude just to paddle out in freezing mid-Winter swell. Such strength of character also comes through in the activities that many surfers get up to out of the water as well. Two such surfers who are inspiring others are aid worker Tim Tanton and environmentalist Mikey Corker.

Tim Tanton: The Aid Worker When the terrible tsunami hit on Boxing Day 2004 the world mourned. But for Brauntona??s Tim Tanton who had been surfing in Sri Lanka since the mid-1990s the tragedy was closer to home as he had friends out there who lost family members, homes and businesses. He visited three times in the following year in an effort to help the local community next to one of the areaa??s famous surf spots of Arugam Bay. During the same year Tim and local paramedic and surfer Paul Martin conceived the idea of Paddle4Relief (www.paddle4relief.co.uk), a fundraising body which would provide a bridge between English surfers wanting to help in some way and the disastera??s victims.

A true Paradise on Earth. Just 10m South of Arugambay

The Panama beach itself was a paradise on earth.

Unspoiled Panama beach

The sand dunes stretching along the beach made us stop our jeep and walk a short distance to the turquoise sea beach which stretched endlessly without a single sign of habitation.
A typical Robinson Crusoe atmosphere.
The pink rocks of Panama stood out at the far end of the beach.
The evening sunlight made them glow pinker.

Panama Point. Looking North to Arugam Bay

Here too were monkeys running up and down.
The beach was covered with exquisite marine plant life. It suddenly dawned on us that this may be one of the only beaches left untouched by civilization and pollution.
We were mindful not to tread on the plants or drive over them in our jeep.

Untouched Panama. A true Paradise

This beach with its abundant plant life must be saved for people to see and admire.
It should not meet the fate of the Nilaveli or Passikudah.

Muhudu Maha Viharaya – PottuVille/ Arugambay

From Arugam bay to the pristine beaches of Panama
Sleepy lagoons, sand dunes

It took almost eleven hours from Colombo to Pottuvil on the narrow and winding A4 road along the south east coastline of Sri Lanka.

Muhudu Maha Viharaya - Arugambay/PottuVille

There were four of us; my husband and two of our friends. So far it had been a eventful day. We had watched the antics of a herd of elephants at theA?Lahugala sanctuary and had stopped to wonder at the historic ruins of theA?Magul Maha Vihara complex.

As we were approaching Pottuvil, the narrow road cut through acres of luxuriously green paddy fields. A milk white dagoba stood out over the fields framed by coconut and palmyrah trees. At the point at which we turned south towards Arugam bay was a small Catholic church dedicated to St. Anthony.

Our destination was Arugam Bay, a further 2.5kms south of Pottuvil.

Around Arugam Bay & PottoVille

We crossed the bridge over the wide lagoon of Arugam Kalapu. The roadside was dotted with hotels, guest houses, restaurants and may have resembled the southern beach line in its early days before tourism became an industry at the cost of the environment and the village culture.

Arugam bay is known as one of the best surf points in the world, popular for its challenging breaker laden waves. It may be one of the only unspoilt beaches in Sri Lanka.

Arugam bay Zoloft online ordering consists of three small villages where fishing and farming are the main occupations. Ullae is a fishing village situated at the corner of the bay Continue reading ‘Arugambay: Like a Southern beach in its Early day’
