Workation in Weligama: the essentials
The name means sandy village, and Weligama's long curve of bay is where many visitors to Sri Lanka's south coast learn to surf. Gentle beach breaks at the town end have drawn a row of surf schools and cafés, with coworking spaces among them. Behind the sand it remains an ordinary Matara District town with fishing boats and a station on the coastal railway. Taprobane Island, a tiny private islet with a villa built by the self-styled Count de Mauny, sits just offshore. The season runs from November to April, and Bandaranaike International Airport is about 150 km away.
