The Wind Seasons In Kalpitiya, Sri Lanka
The wind in Kalpitiya, Sri Lanka blows constantly day and night between May and September from 20 knots, peaking at 30.
The North-West monsoon season from December to March also brings wind for kiting, though not as consistently as the period between May and September. This is thanks to the thermal winds which build throughout the day and last until sunset.
October, November, April are often the calmest months of the year, with less wind and little rain. Though this is not the best time for kiting in Kalpitiya, it is a great time for exploring this amazing country!

Book & Tea Tour
Discover Sri Lanka's rich diversity on this fantastic tour. The first part of the tour visits a tea plantation where you will experience the local lifestyle centred around tea production. Watch the tea plucking process, visit a tea factory and learn the secret art of tea. Enjoy high tea in your bungalow every day with author Ashok Ferrey.
Ashok is Sri Lanka’s biggest-selling author in English. His work takes a satirical look at the complex and often inscrutable lives of Sri Lankans. Ashok is the author of five books – two collections of short stories (Colpetty People, The Good Little Ceylonese Girl) and three novels (Serendipity, The Professional, The Ceaseless Chatter of Demons). Of these five, four have been shortlisted for the Gratiaen Prize (Sri Lanka’s premier literary award, founded and funded by Michael Ondaatje), and the fifth for Sri Lanka’s State Literary Award. His most recent book (Demons) will be translated into French and published by Mercure de France (Gallimard) in the spring of 2018. You will pick three of his books to review with Ashok during the days of this tour. Learn from Ashok Ferry as he chronicles the journeys of characters, seeking something beyond the barriers of nations and generations. Read about his tales of social-climbing Sri Lankans, of the pathos of immigration, of rich people with poor taste, of ice-cream karma, of innocent love, eternity, and more. He accurately portrays Sri Lanka in all its diversity. Ashok Ferrey writes about Sri Lanka and its people, wherever they roam, with remarkable acuity.
The second half of your journey visits one of the most breathtaking lake front properties in Asia – Tri.
