Aura surf camp & Hostel is situated in Arugam Bay, within 7.2 km of Elephant Rock and 18 km of Magul Maha Viharaya. The property is set 3.8 km from Muhudu Maha Viharaya, 4.1 km from Crocodile Rock and 5.6 km from Lagoon Safari - Pottuvils. The property is non-smoking and is located 500 metres from Arugam Bay Beach. It had only just opened its doors and we were met with the warmest welcome from the manager who couldn’t do enough for us. Always went out of his way to accommodate us - sharing extra phone data with us, allowing late check - out due to work commitments, updating us to the air-con room because the fan room was under renovations but with no extra charge. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you so so much

The room was clean, comfortable and the location is quiet yet close to Main Point. The staff were so kind and accommodating for me, and the breakfast they made was very tasty. Early Birds’ vibe overall is chill, and a perfect place to stay in ABay!
