    Amazing surfing lesson in Weligama

    This was an amazing experience! Lesson was very helpful and I enjoyed every moment! The instructor was really nice and encouraging. He's a really good teacher so that I could learn and practice many skills! (If you like to improve your skills, I guarantee that he'll help you to achieve it with very detailed, professional advices.) Plus! They gave me perfect drone shots and videos with awesome quality! You should try this experience. Period!

    Absolutely amazing, highly recommend!

    This experience was amazing! I didn’t have much experience and never learnt properly before this so I was nervous but the instructor made me feel comfortable and was so good at explaining and teaching the technique that I actually managed to stand up and ride a couple waves - yay!! Everyone was very friendly, very professional and they went above and beyond to ensure I had a good experience. My driver dropped me off at the wrong spot and Praneeth was kind enough to come pick up on the bike and take me to where we needed to be. The actual surf spot is further away from the busy surf area so it was more quiet and peaceful, which is perfect for a beginner. I didn’t have to worry that I was going to crash into anyone. They also do drone photography of you catching your waves. Highly recommend to everyone!

    Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Galle.

    How much does Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience cost?

    +

    Prices start at $40 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Galle usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Galle is not rushed.

    Is Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Galle, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Galle can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Galle and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Weekend Drone Shots + 1.5 Hour Weligama Surfing Experience start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Galle within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Galle?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Galle experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full day / Half Day WildlifeAdventure in Yala-National-Park, Special leopard & Elephants safari - Yala - 04.30 am to 11.30 am, Sea waves sri lankan cooking class. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Galle?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Galle?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
