Your transfer to Paradise Beach Club Tangalle
Paradise Beach Club Tangalle is in Tangalle, 191 kilometres from Bandaranaike International Airport — about 3 hours 10 minutes in normal traffic.
Tangalle, where Paradise Beach Club Tangalle is, is close to the centre of Matara, so the end of the drive is the city itself — the stretch that varies with the hour rather than with the route. The fare is the same for any address in Matara, but arriving in the afternoon rush is not the same journey as arriving at dawn.
Day trips from Paradise Beach Club Tangalle
- Mirissa Whale Watching — about 11 km away in a straight line. Blue whales pass close to the shelf edge off the south coast. Boats leave at first light, November to April. Allow a morning, 3–5 hours.
- Tangalle — about 29 km away in a straight line. Wide, empty bays along the deep south coast, with the quietest sand of any of the beach towns. Good for walking, less good for swimming where the surf is heavy. Allow a full day, or stay overnight.
- Unawatuna Beach — about 34 km away in a straight line. A sheltered bay just past Galle — calm swimming, and the closest good beach to the fort. Allow a few hours or a full day.
- Galle Fort — about 38 km away in a straight line. A walled Dutch colonial town still lived in, on a headland over the Indian Ocean. No entry ticket — you simply walk in. Allow half a day.
- Sinharaja Forest Reserve — about 54 km away in a straight line. The last substantial stretch of primary lowland rainforest on the island, and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Endemic birds, leeches and a canopy that closes over the track. Allow a full day, and start early.
Onward from Matara
- Matara to Mirissa — 11 km, about 20 minutes
- Matara to Galle — 45 km, about 1 hour

How this transfer works
One fixed price for the whole car, not per seat. There is no meter, so the figure you are quoted is the figure the booking honours. Give your flight number and the arrival is tracked, so a delayed landing does not cost you the car.
The return leg from Paradise Beach Club Tangalle is the same journey booked the other way, at the same price, and can be arranged now or later in your stay. Departures want you at Bandaranaike three hours before a long-haul flight, so add the 3 hr 10 min back to that.
