Tue 30th Jun 2009 - Top UK Surfers Return to Sri Lanka

The UK Pro Surf Tour has announced it will be returning to Sri Lanka in July this year for the Sri Lanka Champion of Champions Surf Contest at Arugam Bay.

Renowned as one of the best ‘point breaks’ in the world, Arugam Bay on the East coast of Sri Lanka. It is now a hotspot in the surfing calendar and is accessible as a result of the recent end to the civil unrest in the country.

The 2009 Championships, which take place on July 1-6, will see 48 surfers fighting it out to become the ultimate champion including some of UK’s top professional surfers, international stars and local Sri Lankan surfers.

The UK surfers will include Alan Stokes (Newquay), Reubin Ash (Bude) and Sam Lamiroy (Newcastle). Internationals such as Micah Lester (Australia) and Ruebin Pearce (South Africa) will also be competing.

The event is sponsored by SriLankan Airlines who operate non-stop flights from the UK into Colombo. They also fly non-stop to the Maldives making Sri Lanka & the Maldives a great two country surfari combination.
