Tangalle, a serene coastal paradise, is known for its pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and laid-back atmosphere. Unlike busier beach towns, Tangalle offers a peaceful retreat with unspoiled shores such as Goyambokka Beach and Silent Beach, ideal for relaxation and sunbathing. The town is also a gateway to Rekawa Beach, where visitors can witness sea turtles nesting under the moonlight, making it a must-visit for nature lovers.
Beyond its breathtaking coastline, Tangalle is rich in cultural and ecological wonders. The Mulkirigala Rock Temple, an ancient Buddhist monastery perched on a rocky hill, offers panoramic views and stunning cave murals. The nearby Kalametiya Bird Sanctuary provides a haven for birdwatchers and wildlife enthusiasts. Whether you’re seeking solitude, nature, or cultural exploration, Tangalle is a hidden gem that belongs on any Sri Lanka itinerary
