Soul & Surf

Soul & Surf is very special to me - first and foremost because it was at their original Kerala location that I caught my first wave back in 2015 (something I had been dreaming of doing for years) and second, because they have built a brand that encompasses exactly how I believe life should be lived - in the moment, while riding the waves, flowing through vinyasas, fueling yourself with delicious food and connecting with others.

Of course when they decided to open up a second, full-service location in Sri Lanka, I had to go, and it did not disappoint. I spent one week in their stunning new location in Ahangama (about 3 hours south of Colombo) where each day started at the crack of dawn with sunrise vinyasa yoga on the rooftop shala, a morning surf lesson, afternoons relaxing by the pool or exploring neighboring areas (Galle is very close), an evening surf session where you witness the most pristine sunsets, with some evenings closing out with a candle-lit yin yoga session.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner each day was some of the best food I’ve ever had (think Sri Lankan fusion - lots of healthy veggie items, seafood, fresh coffee & juices) and each night I went to bed feeling exhausted but incredibly happy.

For anyone who has ever wanted to try surfing, enjoys yoga or even just wants a week of detox with lots of sun, surf, yoga & sea, book now. I promise you that you will not regret it.
