Tea Tree is located in Ahangama, a relaxed and unspoilt fishing village on the picturesque South Coast of Sri Lanka. It is just 1-2 hours by road from Colombo International Airport and 20 minutes from the historic city of Galle, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Situated between the popular towns of Unawatuna and Mirissa, the heart of Sri Lanka’s surfing scene, Tea Tree is set back from a quiet white sandy beach with two surf breaks out the front and safe swimming areas.
Unlike busy tourist areas like Talpe and Unawatuna, Ahangama is still relatively low-key and unspoilt with the charm of an idyllic fishing village
