BEACH LOVER
A 13 Day Tour
NEGOMBO – TANGALLE – TALPE – BALAPITIYA
This tour is strictly for sun worshipers! Your first stop is for a night in a centuries old manor house, now turned boutique hotel. Next, a beautifully secluded two-kilometer curved beach home to The Last House, a Geoffrey Bawa-designed boutique hotel, in the coastal town of Tangalle. Think long walks along one of Sri Lanka’s least touristy beaches, and after a few days of this, you head back north to Talpe for a stay at Why House, a few minutes from the more lively Wijaya and Unawatuna, with their selection of beach bars and restaurants, before ending your beach-centric holiday and the fabulous Kumu Beach.
TOUR HIGHLIGHTS:
- Stay in a luxury boutique hotel designed by the late Geoffrey Bawa
- Visit the 17th Century Dutch Galle Fort, with its cobbled streets, trendy restaurant and boutiques and cosmopolitan vibe
- Enjoy relaxing on golden, palm fringed beaches of Sri Lanka’s South Coast
