Alankuda Beach is the sister property of Ulpotha, near Anuradhapura, and follows the similar village-based concept of simple eco-friendly accommodation and an informal central dining ambalama – an open-sided pavilion where meals are served in clay pots. Alankuda Beach is situated along a deserted 2 km stretch of pristine private beach and the seas here are calm and inviting from November to April when thousands of dolphins can be spotted.
