Snorkeling Beaches in Tangalle

Goyambokka's sheltered cove is the gateway to Tangalle's most rewarding underwater world — coral gardens and sea turtles await.

Goyambokka Beach, just east of the main Tangalle bay, is the region's prime snorkelling destination. The cove's naturally sheltered position keeps the water calm and clear, revealing coral formations and a variety of reef fish. Sea turtles frequently visit the shallower reefs here — a combination of quiet surroundings and excellent marine life that puts this small cove in a class of its own on Sri Lanka's south coast.
