The standard international arrival gateway is Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) near Colombo. Travel south by prearranged road transfer or combine ground transport to Colombo with a coastal train. Sri Lanka Tourism confirms the Colombo-Galle road and coastal railway links; Sri Lanka Railways lists stations at Beruwala, Aluthgama and Bentota. Exact airport road time, transfers and diving pickup points depend on traffic and your accommodation; no modeled timing is supplied.
The three bases have stations on the Sri Lanka Railways Coast Line; train stopping patterns and reservations require fresh checking. For hotels, river boarding points, dive bases and gardens, prebooked cars and locally arranged tuk-tuks are practical.
