Weligama

Known as the "Sandy Village" (a direct translation of its name), Weligama is the undisputed surfing heart of Sri Lanka's south coast. This crescent-shaped bay, dotted with rocky outcrops and framed by coconut palms, offers more than just a beautiful beach. It’s a haven for first-time surfers thanks to its gentle, consistent waves and sandy bottom, a relaxed lifestyle hub for digital nomads, and a perfect base for exploring the cultural riches of the Southern Province
