Located 76 Km from Sri Lanka's capital Colombo, is this prized expanse of sandy beach in Ahungalle. Blissful privacy is provided by the thick coconut groves and the watery depths of the Indian Ocean. The small fishing town of Ahungalle and neighbouring Ambalangoda both boast idyllic palm-fringed fine golden sand beaches lapped by warm, aquamarine waters.

This lovely stretch of beach plays host to some of the most luxurious hotels on the west coast and is lined with post card perfect coconut groves. The sun shinning sandy beached Ahungalla is a small and serene fishing village located on the south-western shores of Sri Lanka. The areas around Ahungalla are broken by the mouth of the river feeding into the sea and this brings an abundance of both river and sea fish to the township. A boat ride through the mangrove swamps of Ahungalla is the perfect way to appreciate the local flora and fauna.
