Sri Lanka plays a significant role in the kiteboarding industry as it is the home of the factories and testing ground for many of the big brand names we know and love. This and a robust offering of kite schools and camps have resulted in Kalpitiya’s tourism becoming largely centred around the sport of kiteboarding.
