Gateway to the South

Story of the South

Explore Sri Lanka’s vibrant Southern Coast From guided tours of historic Galle Fort, to private whale watching and ocean adventures, Cape Weligama promises to immerse you into the beating heart of Sri Lanka’s famed Southern Coast. The Southern Coast is home to a history of its own, steeped in folklore, heritage and traditional culture. As part of the coastline, the south also provides an array of opportunities to explore pristine beaches, mangroves and cinnamon and tea plantations. As a trading hub, it is also home to a powerful and still evident colonial history

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum
