Designed to take you beyond the typical trip.
DIVE DEEPER
An overview of your adventure
Rather than simply travelling between destinations, you'll ride inland along secluded backroads, winding jungle trails and hidden local routes, discovering the landscapes, wildlife and authentic culture that make Sri Lanka such an unforgettable adventure destination.
From authentic local food and hidden locations far beyond the tourist trail to tea plantations, historic museums and temples, every stop is hand-selected from our own personal adventures across Sri Lanka. Each experience is carefully curated to create a truly unique expedition.
We focus on a single, carefully crafted expedition, run in small, intimate groups to keep the experience personal and authentic.
Our expedition combines surfing at iconic destinations on Sri Lanka’s south coast with guided motorcycle travel between each location.
SURF LOCATIONS
Discover some of the most incredible surf spots along Sri Lanka's south coast, including Ahangama, Weligama, Hiriketiya, Dickwella, Unakuruwa and Mirissa.
Enjoy at least two surf sessions at each destination, with additional sessions where possible. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced surfer, we have hand-selected breaks suited to your ability and the conditions.
RIDING ROUTE
Explore Sri Lanka beyond the usual tourist trails on our guided motorcycle expedition. Ride through winding jungle roads, secluded backroads and breathtaking tropical landscapes, discovering a side of the island few travellers experience.
Our carefully selected routes are kept secret until the expedition begins, making every journey a unique adventure.
CULTURE IMMERSION
Experience the rich culture and history of Sri Lanka beyond its beautiful beaches. Discover traditional tea plantations, historic museums, Buddhist temples and hidden local treasures throughout your expedition.
Every cultural stop is hand-selected from our own experiences exploring the island, offering an authentic insight into Sri Lankan life away from the usual tourist trail.

We will ask for proof of your insurance before starting the tour.
Meals are not provided in our package as we understand that individuals may have certain dietary requirements.
We highly encourage people to eat local food as it connects you deeper to the culture, communities and the lifestyle.
The local food options are the cheapest. This can range from £2 - £5 per meal. Meals at a restaurant will be slightly more expensive, but still affordable at £5-10+.
We have an abundance of recommendations of places to eat, which include our personal favourites!
Passport: Valid passport and any required entry documentation
Beach Towel: Bring a beach towel; hotel bath towels are provided
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 personally recommend getting one that contains over 50% deet.

ABOUT US
Founded by two best friends with a shared passion for travel and adventure, Shore & Trail Expeditions was created to offer something different: unforgettable surf and motorcycle adventures across Sri Lanka.
After years of exploring and realising that no single tour brought together everything we loved about travelling, we decided to create our own.
Designed for adventurers, by adventurers.
Every part of our seven-day Sri Lanka expedition has been carefully crafted through our own experiences, combining incredible surf destinations, hidden motorcycle routes and authentic cultural encounters.
SMALL GROUP ADVENTURES FOR EVERYONE
Our expeditions welcome solo travellers, couples and friends of all genders. We keep our groups small to create a friendly, personal and supportive environment where everyone can feel comfortable exploring Sri Lanka.
As a 50% woman-owned business, creating an experience where women feel welcome, respected and confident is especially important to us.
We also offer the option to arrange women-only expeditions for private groups. Simply get in touch to discuss your plans.
From carefully selected routes and accommodation to our approach to group travel, your safety, comfort and wellbeing are central to everything we do.
