FAQ

Oh, it’s a treat! Think healthy, hearty dishes with a Sri Lankan twist—fragrant rice and curry loaded with spices like cinnamon and cardamom (Sri Lanka’s spice game is world-famous). Seafood fans will love fresh prawns or tuna, grilled or cooked in creamy coconut milk. You’ll also get vibrant tropical fruits—juicy papaya, king coconuts, tangy passion fruit—plus local greens like gotu kola(Leaves salad) in veggie dishes. Bold, authentic flavors to keep you fueled and grinning!

Absolutely! If you’re hooked on Sri Lanka’s beaches and vibes, we can help you stick around. Fancy spotting wild elephants in Udawalawe or taking a scenic train ride through Ella’s tea hills? Just say the word, and we’ll sort it out.

Your retreat, your call! Surf lessons, kayaking through mangroves, or group workouts are all up for grabs—but totally optional. Feel like chilling poolside with a book instead of hiking? Do it. We’ll tweak everything to match your pace.

Sri Lanka’s a surf haven! The southern coast—think Weligama or Mirissa—has mellow waves perfect for
newbies, while Arugam Bay ups the ante for pros. Our local instructors will have you riding waves in no time—warm water and chill vibes included.

Nope, since you’re all coming from different corners of the globe, flights to Sri Lanka are on you. But once you touch down, we’ve got the rest covered.

Gotta be 18 or older—this retreat’s built for adults ready to unwind and soak it all in.

For sure! A cold beer or glass of wine is fair game—relaxation’s key here. We even host a beach party with Sri Lankan flair, featuring arrack (a punchy coconut spirit) or toddy (fermented palm sap). Want to hit a local bar or beach shack mid-week? Go for it—we’ll point you to the best spots.

Oh, you’re in for a treat! Sri Lanka’s got this incredible mix of Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, and colonial vibes. You might catch Kandyan dancers in wild costumes or drummers at a local festival. We’ll sneak in a hopper-making class (those crispy pancakes are a must) or a temple visit to feel the island’s soul.

They stick to the left here, like in the UK. Roads are lively—tuk-tuks, cows, and honking galore (it’s more a hello than a hassle). If you’re driving, bring an International Driving Permit or grab a temp one from the Automobile Association of Ceylon—though most folks just enjoy the ride with us or a tuk-tuk instead!

Yep, a few handy tips! Greet folks with “Ayubowan” (long life to you) and a slight bow or clasped hands—it’s the Sri Lankan way. Temples mean modest dress (cover shoulders and knees) and no shoes inside. Keep public PDA subtle, and don’t point with your feet—it’s a no-no here.

Tons! Surf world-class waves (beginners welcome), kayak rivers surrounded by mangroves and wildlife, hike lush hills, or explore ancient temples. Beach vibes are always on tap too—Sri Lanka’s got it all.

You bet! Kayaking’s unreal—glide along the Madu Ganga, past wooden fishing boats and under green canopies. Monkeys and monitor lizards might pop up to say hi. It’s serene yet adventurous, and we’ll hook you up with gear and guides.
