Okanda is a remote right-hand point break with long, mellow rides in Sri Lanka's Eastern Province.
Okanda offers long, peeling right-hand waves breaking over a sand and rock bottom, ideal for intermediate and advanced surfers. The spot is known for its consistency during the dry season, especially when southern swells arrive. Access requires a drive through Arugam Bay and a short walk through the bush, keeping crowds light. The surrounding area is wild and scenic, with limited facilities and abundant wildlife. Waves are generally mellow but can get fast and hollow during bigger swells. Early mornings offer the cleanest conditions with offshore winds.
