Overview

Welcome to Ahangama—the south coast’s best-kept secret that is quickly becoming its most stylish destination. Famous for its iconic stilt fishermen, world-class intermediate reef breaks, and a growing scene of boutique cafes and yoga retreats, Ahangama offers a more “local” and laid-back vibe than its neighbors, Galle or Weligama.

The journey from Colombo to Ahangama is approximately 145 km and is incredibly smooth thanks to the Southern Expressway. While local transport can be a colorful adventure, a private taxi is the gold standard for travelers who want to skip the 4-hour train heat and arrive fresh at their villa. With Luxury Tours Sri Lanka, your journey takes just 1.5 to 2 hours, leaving you plenty of time for a sunset surf at Kabalana.
