Overview: Fisherman’s Reef | Weligama

Set on the harbor (east) side of Weligama Bay, Fisherman’s Reef is a right-hand reef point with real ocean push and longer, more lined-up walls than the inner bay.
It sits far enough from the learner zones that crowds thin out, but it’s still close to town for easy logistics.
Expect a long paddle over shallow reef (or a boat drop with local fishers), a defined take-off zone, and rides that can run for a few hundred meters on a good
S–SW groundswell. The wave is punchier and faster than Weligama’s sandbanks, so it suits අතරමැදි–උසස් surfers with reef awareness.

• නානමිතිය: Fringing reef and lava rock shelves focus the swell into a running right with sections for carves and occasional speed pockets.
• කොන්දේසි: පිරිසිදුම උතුරු–ඊසාන/අක්වෙරළ morning winds; මධ්‍යම සිට මධ්‍යම දක්වා ඉහළ වඩදිය බාදිය adds cushion over the inside.
• උපද්‍රව: Shallow patches, urchins, sweep near the headland, and boat traffic—watch entry/exit channels and respect local fishers.
• පුවරු: Daily-driver shortboards and performance twins; step down/fish on smaller days, more rocker when it’s lined and punchy.
