Tangalle Beach
Tangalle Beach is the perfect place to go for a peaceful and quiet vacation. The beautiful white sand beach will give you the true vibes of a tropical paradise. The white sand goes on for kilometers at a stretch with bays and beaches on both the north and south sides.
Tangalla originally was a fishing village, which suffered hugely during the tsunami in 2004 and they have been rebuilding since. Though the beaches and bays here are really breathtaking, it doesnโt attract too many tourists, making it a perfect peaceful getaway.
The beach offers some of the most spectacular views of the sunset. Though the water is deep blue and pretty, swimming at Tangalle Beach is not suitable as the tides can be quite rough and it can be quite dangerous. The small bay with a sheltering reef, is one of the places that you should definitely visit. The reef catches the bigger waves and it acts like a natural Jacuzzi. The soft sands of the beach also make it an ideal spot for a nice morning run.
Along the Tangalle beach, restaurants and cafes are lied in large numbers and you can grab a bite or a drink while enjoying the beach. Tangalle beach is brimming with potential for tourism and it may very well be a part of future tourism in Sri Lanka.
The best time to visit the Tangalle Beach is during the winter months of November until April. The beach is in the best of its glory during this time. You can also visit this beach in summer from May till October, which is when the beach is very peaceful as not many people visit this place during the off-season, although the sea might be in rough conditions at this time.
