Workation in Ahangama: the essentials
About 18 km east of Galle on the A2, Ahangama is a small coastal town whose shoreline has become one of the busiest long-stay areas in southern Sri Lanka. Surf camps, yoga studios and cafés line the main road, the reef breaks around Kabalana set the daily rhythm, and stilt fishermen still work this stretch. Galle, Weligama and Mirissa are a tuk-tuk ride or short train trip away, and Bandaranaike International Airport is about 140 km north. The season runs from November to April, and during the southwest monsoon from May many places close. The road through town carries constant traffic, so look for a room set back from it.
