Activities

There are so many things to see and do in Arugam Bay, and we can help you enjoy your holiday to the fullest.



Safaris/Eco-tours/Cultural visits

Arugam Bay is surrounded by areas that are perfect for exploration. Yala National Park and Lahugala National Park are the two most popular natural reserves nearby, while the lagoon is also another nature lover’s paradise. These attractions are all less than 40km away from Beach Hut, and we can arrange for tours of these areas. Cultural attractions like the Mudu Maha Viharaya, the Okanda Rock and the Panama village, among others, are also situated close by.


Sun, sand and surf

Of course, Arugam Bay owes much of its popularity to its picturesque beaches. Beach Hut is located close to Main Point and Whiskey Point, which are the main surfing spots in the area, where surfers can catch waves to their hearts’ content. In case you’re unable to bring your own board, we offer surfboard rentals and lessons too. If you’re looking to simply bask in the gentle ebb and flow of the ocean, there is Baby Point nearby, which is extremely relaxing as the waves there are very calm.




Bicycle/Scooter rental & Tuk-tuk/Van hires

Whether you’re looking to travel around the area by yourself or be taken to specific places, we’ll make sure you have the transport. We have our own bicycles and scooters for rental, and we can also arrange for tuk-tuk or van transport.


We also accommodate other types of requests. For instance, in September 2012, we even hosted a wedding for some of our longtime guests! Check out the video below, and browse through Dan MC's channel for more videos of Beach Hut and Arugam Bay!
