Weligama

Weligama is a bustling coastal town roughly a 40 minute drive east of Galle, on the most southern tip of Sri Lanka.

The town centre is set back from the beach and provides great insights into everyday Sri Lankan beach town life. The sweeping beach is wide and long, covered with lots of colourful fishing boats, and it is a great place to buy fresh fish from the morning catch. The beach is famous for its gentle break waves – a perfect spot to learn to surf in the warm water with surf instructors from around the world.

Weligama is also just a 5 minute drive from Mirissa Harbour, where the southern whale-watching excursions depart from, a simply unmissable experience for wildlife lovers.

I can't think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything.

Client Testimonials

Everything you did for us whilst we were away was hugely appreciated, and Ampersand has been exemplary in every way. I'll always recommend you!
- Mr Richard Stoughton, Sri Lanka
We really enjoyed the trip and were happy that we squeezed so much into a few short days. The Burmese people were lovely and the sites were fantastic. We really enjoyed the balloon ride and would highly suggest it to others in the future. The trip went super smoothly and a good time plus learning happened for all. Yangon was nice as the Strand was quite amazing and we of course loved the giant gold temple. Many thanks for all of your help and look forward to future travel with you.
- Wallace Family, Burma
Without question, you put together the best trip I have ever taken. We were shown around like visiting dignitaries, the hotels were fantastic and the itinerary was just right. Everybody I know will hear about how amazing Ampersand is!
