Weligama hava durumu: Aralık

December is the month the south-west coast changes over, and regulars put the turn late rather than early: the coast dries out a lot from mid-December, and the season proper starts just before Christmas. Some years the first half stays very wet, and they report Decembers where it rained throughout, or where the dry days still carried a sea too rough and windy to enjoy until January. Our row reads that first half: 186.2mm across 21.8 precipitation days, the wettest in this batch. Heat is steady at 30.1C reading as 36C at 84 percent humidity, with a 28.6C sea. For the most reliable south-coast beach weather they name February and March instead. The record: 9.6 hours of sun, a 10.6 kph wind and AQI 57.

Sri Lanka's forum notes the southwest monsoon runs May through September, and while some posters described August days as sunny with just the odd late-afternoon shower, the bigger practical issue for Weligama and the rest of the south coast is the sea itself - monsoon swell makes the water genuinely unsafe for swimming outside a handful of reef-protected spots like Hikkaduwa and Unawatuna. Weligama specifically also gets a mention for having murkier water than neighboring beaches due to a nearby river mouth, regardless of season. Despite the rough seas, posters said the town stays lively as a secondary August high season.

Forum posters name November through April as the dry season on this stretch of Sri Lanka's south coast, with February squarely inside it - sunny conditions and calm, clear seas are the norm, good for the area's famous beginner-friendly surf breaks. Posters describe Weligama itself as more of a surf town, while nearby Mirissa offers a reef-protected, calmer swimming option for anyone less interested in the waves - both Weligama and neighboring Ahangama and Midigama stay in surf season through April. Posters consistently recommend the area for beginner surf lessons specifically, with plenty of surf schools and instructors offering both group and one-on-one sessions.
