Ten kilometres North of Arugam Bay.

This is one of the most consistent peaks in the region and works well with all tides, handling swell up to 12 feet. It needs an Easterly wind in order to kick off perfectly, and even though it is not such a long ride the locals love it. It is also a right hander point break which, on some days, is accessible to beginners and does not tend to get crowded.

A few minutes North of Arugam Bay.

A right hander point break with some consistency which requires a good deal of experience on the part of surfers. In many ways this powerful wave is the same as The Point, although it has less crowd and works better in mid outgoing tide. When the outside and the inside connect you might be able to ride along for around 800 meters on the same wave. It needs a little more swell than Arugam Bay to kick off and is also a favourite among longboarders.

A few minutes south of Arugam Bay, also known as Crocodile Rock.

Another right hander point break which works in all tides and is accessible to surfers of all levels of experience. No major hazards or much crowd make this one of the safest surfing waves on the Southeast coast. Waves can stretch out up to 300 meters and make for seriously fun surfing. It needs more swell than Arugam Bay and is also a good option for longboarders.

This is a powerful right hander point break, although somewhat inconsistent. It has three separate peaks, the main one requiring more experience.
