I'm planning to surf this month. Can you please let me know which place is better, Mirissa or Weligama? What's the cost for board rental and coach? Any other interesting things to do like The Doctor's House?

Thanks for your detailed reply. Now I can plan accordingly. Can you tell me why Weligama is better than Mirissa?Quote:
