We are located on the south coast of Sri Lanka, near Tangalle and Hiriketiya, in the picturesque fisherman’s village of Unakuruwa. Into The Blue is a hidden retreat surrounded by lush tropical greenery, just a short walk from three breathtaking beaches: a secret surf break perfect for both beginners and experienced surfers, the postcard-perfect Silence Beach, and the peaceful Jungle Beach.

All three beaches are easily accessible from your boutique stay within a 5 to 10-minute walk, offering the perfect blend of surf, sand, and serenity.

Nestled in nature, we offer four private cabins with en-suite bathrooms and balconies overlooking the garden, one room in a charming colonial villa, and a private villa at the top of the property. This accomodation setup creates the perfect balance between beach and jungle living. From the terrace, you can spot colorful birds, giant squirrels in the mornings, and fireflies glowing in the evenings.

At Into The Blue, we offer daily yoga classes in our newly built jungle-view yoga shala, where experienced yoga instructors guide small, intimate sessions for all levels. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner, our classes focus on breath, movement, and alignment to help you find balance and relaxation.

There is no shortage of activities to experience in the area, from surfing coaching, yoga, and snorkeling with turtles to exploring waterfalls and hidden beaches. Whether you seek adventure or relaxation, Into The Blue is the perfect surf and yoga retreat in Sri Lanka, where you can connect with nature, recharge, and embrace the island lifestyle.
