What's the surf like in Sri Lanka in Aug/Sep or Oct?

Question

I'm looking to go on a trip either in the second half of august, or in October. I'm not looking for the biggest waves in the world necessarily but consistency is key. I want (need, it's been a cold winter) to surf in boardies.

Also, we're taking our girlfriends along, so going somewhere with something to do/explore would be good. I've looked at Lombok and Sri Lanka but can't find much on the consistency of swell in that season.

Any advice would be welcome.

Hi ya,

There is great surf to be had in Sri Lanka, but the place is not the most safe at the moment. The conflict with the Tamil Tigers is spreading and is no longer restricted to the northern part of the country. The other problem is the time you want to go, depending on where you go of course, is around the monsoon season in the south of the country (June to October).
