Arugam Bay

Strongest, most consistent wind. Best for confident sessions and bookable holidays — also the busiest weeks and the highest accommodation prices.

Reliable conditions with noticeably fewer crowds and better value. The sweet spot for travellers who want the wind without paying peak prices.

Less consistent — some good days, more down days. Quiet beaches, the cheapest accommodation, smaller school presence.

Wind drops sharply. Many schools and rentals close. Not the right window for a kite-focused trip — plan elsewhere.
