When is the best time to come to Kitesurfing Lanka?
Mid-May to mid-October: In the Sumer Season (mid-May to mid-October) we get wind all day with averages of 18-20 knots. You can choose between the flat water lagoon and waves in the ocean. Weather is warm and a wetsuit isn’t necessary.
Mid-December to mid-March: In the Winter Season (mid-December to mid-March) the wind picks up in the afternoon and ranges between 15 to 20 knots. Winter is also whale and dolphin watching season or you can go diving and snorkelling in the mornings. Although it’s winter, the average outside temperature is 26°C and you can kitesurf with a shortie or without a wetsuit.
October, November, April: The low wind months (October, November, April) are still very much worth a visit. There is always a breeze even in the low months, so if you are a kite foiler – with a large size kite you can be enjoying a session even in the low wind months!
