Ahangama Beach

About Ahangama Beach

Ahangama Beach is a stretch of coastline situated along Sri Lanka's southern shore, close to the town of Weligama. Like much of this coastline, it attracts visitors drawn to the Indian Ocean scenery, with opportunities for swimming, sunbathing and simply watching the rhythms of local fishing life. The area retains a relatively unhurried character compared with busier resort beaches further along the coast, making it a reasonable choice for those seeking a quieter spot. Surfers sometimes make use of the waves depending on the season, and the surrounding village setting offers glimpses of everyday Sri Lankan coastal life. Weligama, a short distance away, provides accommodation, restaurants and practical amenities for those using Ahangama as a base or day visit.
