Peanut Farm Beach and Surf Spot, The Ultimate Guide
Wondering whether Peanut Farm Beach is worth a visit? Whether the surf is good, if the lineup is busy, if it’s a good hangout spot, and whether you should spend the day. Welcome to our guide to one of our favourite surf spots and beaches in Arugam Bay.
Arugam Bay offers a unique vibe that you won’t find anywhere else in Sri Lanka. It’s an amazing blend of traditional fishing life and surf culture, a growing bohemian town close to roaming wildlife, and a meeting point for new-age travelers and seasoned locals. All of this is set against the wild, untouched beauty of Sri Lanka’s East Coast.
Of all the places you can explore near Arugam Bay, nowhere represents this vibe more than Peanut Farm Beach. It’s a simple place really, an old abandoned peanut farm set in the corner of a 2km beach laden with soft golden sand and framed by overgrown jungle that has naturally evolved into a vibrant traveler hotspot.
Two fun surf breaks, a locally run beach bar inside an old abandoned hut, a volleyball net made from fallen tree branches, a makeshift mini golf course, and a throw-your-own tent-up beach campsite. It’s the perfect place to bring some boards, catch some waves, and spend a carefree day with a bunch of like-minded travellers.
Peanut Farm Beach was one of our go-to spots during our time in Arugam Bay, and if you’re planning to explore the East Coast of Sri Lanka, it’s a must-visit location.
Why visit Peanut
If you visit Arugam Bay, it’s easy to get sucked into the convenience of only surfing Main Point, hanging out at the beach all day, maybe hitting up the hipster cafes, and generally not leaving town. But the East Coast has so much more to offer, and a great place to start is Peanut Farm Beach.
If you surf Main Point in the center of town, you’ll be sharing the peak with 40-50 others most days. Peanut Farm Beach offers a refreshing alternative. With its somewhat off-the-beaten-path location, two peaks to hit, and a little beach break if the swell is pumping, the lineup here is less crowded. If you’re looking for a quieter surf spot with some power and long 200-300 meter rides, Peanut Farm Beach is the first place to try.
