Tangalle & South Coast

Home of Amazing Beaches

Stunning coastlines, endless golden beaches, history, and amazing food – Tangalle has a lot to offer and yet, somehow manages to stay a quiet little town.

In the past Tangalle was an important anchorage for the Dutch and British colonists, and structures from that era can still be seen today.

A very popular and peaceful beach getaway destination

The main Tangalle bay is one of the largest bays in Sri Lanka and a long reef protects it from big ocean waves.

The waters in the main bay are not suitable for swimming, even though they are protected by the reef. However, there are plenty of smaller bays around it, where it is safe to swim. Thanks to the gentle wave breaks, Tangalle has fast become the ‘go to’ place for beginner surfers. The rocks on one side and the hill on the other also offer protection for surfers from onshore winds.
