We are loud.
We are unapologetically ourselves.
We are the Lanka Living tribe.
Our Vision
Lanka Living is a home away from home. A place where like-minded legends gather from all corners of the globe to share epic moments, eat, surf, explore, party and repeat. This is the surf community we've always wanted: a lifestyle of warm water waves in perfect climate, uncrowded lineups and crazy parties, shoulder to shoulder with a tight-knit tribe of incredible people in a place where it's safe to be yourself. Leave your yoga mat at home and tell your grandma you're going to bandcamp - it's time to take your surf skills to the next level and experience a surf getaway like no other.

Mika

After catching her first wave in 2011 she left her mundane city lifestyle behind to build her perfect life - to surf, chill & party with a tight-knit community of her closest friends. She travelled the world searching for the perfect paradise to turn her dreams into reality, and after stumbling upon the beautiful jungle villa in Ahangama, Lanka Living was born.
