Galle

A fabulous place to spend a few days going back in time.

Experience a centuries-old blend of cultures on Sri Lanka's south coast, where trading spices and ideas was once the talk of the town.

The blend of Mediterranean and tropical in Galle is quite intoxicating, and a reminder that East and West have been interacting for thousands for years, trading spices and ideas. Galle is a charming old coastal town locked in by the walls of a 16th century Portuguese Fort, today lined with trendy restaurants, boutique shops and heritage hotels. It’s just a lovely and fascinating town in which to spend a couple of days (and we advise a night out), on your holiday in Sri Lanka. You can walk around the old stone ramparts and stop off at the lighthouse, the Marine Archaeological Museum and several Dutch churches. Galle is home to some of the country's most atmospheric hotels, or you can opt to stay on a quieter beach nearby and pop into town.
