Yes! We’re open all year round, making it the perfect destination whatever the season. The high season runs from December to May, when you’ll likely experience hot, sunny days, calmer seas, and little rain - ideal for outdoor activities and soaking up the sun.

The green season (June to November) offers it’s own special appeal. During these months, you can still expect plenty of sunshine, with occasional scattered showers. It’s a quieter time to visit, allowing you to enjoy Sri Lanka’s natural beauty and peaceful surroundings without the crowds. At Makahiya, we train in all weather, ensuring that you’ll get the most out of your experience no matter the time of year.

At Makahiya, we cater to all fitness levels. We’ve had everyone from professional athletes to complete beginners join us, and we make sure that each person’s experience is tailored to where they’re at. Whether you’re looking to take your fitness to the next level or just want to get moving again, we’ve got you covered.

Our classes are adaptable, and our trainers are great at making sure you feel both challenged and comfortable, whatever your ability. It’s all about pushing yourself at your own pace, so don’t worry if you’re just starting out - we’ve all been there!

We get this one a lot. Makahiya is a plant which goes by many names: touch-me-not, shy plant, or nidhikumba in Sinhala. Touch its leaves and see what happens.
