Situated on Sri Lanka’s serene southern tip, the town of Tangalle combines pristine beaches, turquoise waters and a laid-back pace that invites true relaxation. Whether you’re arriving from the airport, staying for a few days or using Tangalle as a base to explore the coast, the taxi service from Colombo Taxi Airport ensures your transport is comfortable, convenient and worry-free.

Why Tangalle Shines

Tangalle is often described as one of the country’s last great beach escapes — wide sandy bays almost to yourself, sea caves, reef-protected waters and lush green hinterlands. Unlike more crowded resorts, Tangalle retains a mellow rhythm where you can stroll along the shore, watch boats bobbing by dusk and feel part of a slower seaside life.

Key Attractions in and around Tangalle

Start your stay with the wide, golden expanse of Tangalle Beach itself — perfect for swimming, sun-bathing or simply relaxing with a book under a swaying palm. Venture a little further to natural features like the rock-framed Rekawa Beach, known for turtle nesting, or the hidden sea-caves around Silent Beach for a unique coastal moment.

For wildlife and nature lovers, head inland or around the coast to places such as the Mulkirigala Rock Temple — perched high above jungle and offering panoramic views of the surrounding plains and coastline. The bay of Hiriketiya is also within reach, offering swirling reef breaks and a chilled surf scene. On top of all that, the sunsets seen from Tangalle’s headlands are among the best on the island.

Day Trips & Nearby Destinations

From your base in Tangalle you’re well positioned for several scenic excursions.

• A morning snorkel or dive at reef-protected bays nearby, where sea life thrives in calmer water.
• A boat ride or beach break in the bays south of Tangalle, where the shoreline curves and offers fewer crowds.
• A visit to the eco-friendly turtle hatchery at Rekawa — a meaningful wildlife encounter and memorable stop for any traveller.
• A drive along the southern coast to Weligama or Mirissa for surf, cafés and beach bars — or inland to hillside tea-plantation vistas if you want a shift in scenery.
