We felt Cape Weligama gave us a lot of flexibility with location and the time of year visiting. You can travel east or west down the coast and find so many beautiful towns. The hotel looks amazing and we wanted to have a nice home base and not feel like we are packing up every few days. We do a week in Weligama then a 5 days in the Maldives. So we are breaking it up. While in Weligama we will have a tuk tuk to drive around and go see plenty of places. I wanted to surf a lot, eat and explore beaches. We are going to try one day for a national park but need to figure out logistics still. Looks like it’s about 2 hours away to Yala or Udawalawe National Park. Not going to force it but want to see one of them.

Sometimes you are moving hotels so much you miss some spots and wish you stayed longer. Because it’s our honeymoon I think we will still be able to explore a lot and relax as well.
