A trip to Vella Island in Kalpitiya

Vella Island is a Flat water paradise. Welcome with dark blue sea with shallow and flat water on other side. Trust me its an amazing place,Around 45 Minutes impressed boat ride and 30KM north of Kalpitiya that welcomes to have  their own spot if they liked. Vella island is an isolation place with few fisherman for company. On this Island there no any facilities as its a only fisherman’s island without any water and electricity. who cares ! but the conditions for kitesurfing are just Unrivaled.

Beach Camping Night on Vella Island

Think about overnight stay with full moon on a island, Hmm it should be a another level experience. Most of riders stay overnight in full moon and do the the kitesurfing at night, under the moon light on poya day. This should be a next level experience I have had in Sri Lanka so far. You can stay overnight in a fisherman hut with the full moon.
