Whiskey Point Surf Location

Whiskey Point Surf Location, aka Komare, tucked in behind Pottuvil town, is a beginners/intermediate wave in Arugam bay that peels off the rocks. Non-surfers who visit the bay would come to Whiskey Point for practicing after their initial surf lessons at the baby point. The water will look turquoise–warm, and inviting and mostly what you will get is chest high sets with odd bigger ones.You can paddle out in the channel right besides the rocks. Whiskey point is one of the points in Arugam bay that could work well even if the main point is flat. So there is no wonder that this is local’s second favorite point.
