I am commenting on the "Ceylon Gems & Jewellery" shop on 200 Broadway Road, Matara, Sri Lanka.I do not know if it is another location of the same chain or if there are two "Ceylon Gems and Jewellery". This was a small shop with what seemed to be a husband/wife running it. They had a small, but beautiful selection of jewelery and the ability to make something to your specifications if you wished. There was no pressure to buy and reasonable prices. We were there almost a year ago and I am still very happy with the earrings I bought!

Freddie is just a legend. Lovely truly kind and professional. Him and his lovely wife have a little coconut shack on coconut beach In front a some fantastic waves for advanced surfers... where he surfs every morning. We actually witness him helping out to get a girl out of the water who had been injured by the fin of another surfers board. He was truly shaken by this event, no arrogance just kindness. He gave us our first ever surfing lesson, he was patient and calm and managed to make me stand one a board and ride a wave, and that, takes from proper skills from him! ???? Anyway we highly recommend freddy’s lessons and shack for a nice drink in front of the wonderful waves of coconut at surprise and sunset.
