Tangalle Beach is a memorable family destination for those with older children who are happy to play on spectacular sands without entering the water — the surf can be strong, so swimming is best done in calmer pockets. The beach is a sea turtle nesting site, and an evening visit for a nest sighting is an unforgettable family experience. For young children who need calm water, head further east to Goyambokka instead.
