Our expedition is combining surfing at the iconic destinations on Sri Lanka’s south coast with guided motorcycle travel between each location.

Rather than simply moving from one location to the next, you’ll ride inland through secluded backroads, winding jungle passes, and hidden local routes to experience the landscapes and culture that make Sri Lanka unique.

From authentic local food and hidden locations far beyond the tourist trail to tea plantations, historic museums, and temples hand-selected through our own personal adventures across Sri Lanka, every part of the expedition is carefully curated for a truly unique adventure.

We focus on a single, carefully crafted expedition, run in small, intimate groups to keep the experience personal and authentic.

SURF LOCATIONS

Surf the breaks at the most infamous beaches on the south coast:

Ahangama, Weligama, Hiriketiya, Dickwella, Unakuruwa, Mirissa & more!

You’ll get 2 sessions in each location & some locations 3 to 4. If the location is too busy or the surf isn’t to your standard, we will take you to our personal selected surrounding beaches until you are satisfied!

RIDING ROUTE

Through personal adventure and exploration, your expedition leaders have curated the most unforgettable routes to explore the unseen beauty of Sri Lanka.

We keep our routes a top secret until you are on the expedition, so that it’s a unique adventure no other traveller or company can replicate.

  • Passport

  • IDP

  • Beach Towel: The hotels will provide bath towels, but we do not provide beach towels.

  • Sun cream: The UV in Sri lanka is high, so we highly advise to wear it. Eco friendly sun creams are preferred to help conserve the oceans.

  • Mosquito spray: The mosquitos in Sri Lanka are ruthless, so a good mosquito spray is essential. We recommend getting one that contains over 50% deet.

Essentials + Extras:

ABOUT US

Founded by two best friends with a shared passion for travel & adventure, we created Shore & Trail Expeditions to deliver unforgettable memories across Sri Lanka.

After realising no tours brought together everything we looked for in an adventure, we decided to create our own.

Designed for adventurers, by adventurers.‍ ‍

We pride ourselves on providing an adventure of a lifetime. This is why every element of the 7 day expedition is crafted from our personal exploration, to give you the ultimate surf & motorcycle tour

As a 50% woman-owned business, creating an environment where women feel safe, comfortable and welcome is something that is really important to us. We want every woman who joins us to feel confident travelling, exploring and enjoying the experience without having to worry about their safety!

That’s why we keep our groups small, carefully choose our routes and accommodation, and put your safety and wellbeing at the heart of what we do.

Most importantly, we want you to feel safe enough to let loose, be yourself and truly enjoy the adventure knowing that you’re in good hands!

Our groups are mixed gender, creating an inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone. However, if you are a group of women looking to arrange a women only tour, please get in touch with us and we’ll be happy to arrange this!
