$75 Cheap Car Rental in Kosgoda

If your trip to Kosgoda is all organized but your travel itinerary is looking a little empty, let us give you a helping hand.There’s nothing quite like discovering new things, and you can do that at Kosgoda Turtle Hatchery. Sea Turtle Conservation & Research Center is another worthwhile pit stop.

With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up everything that Galle, 25 miles away, has to offer. Galle Fort, Unawatuna Beach and Jungle Beach alone make the drive out here worthwhile. Locals will also probably point you in the direction of Western Province, 35 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, let it be Jana Kala Kendraya. (But we’re also big fans of Sri Lanka Air Force Museum and Kotte Rajamaha Viharaya.)

Nothing says vacation like jumping in the car, blasting some tunes and driving to the coast. Kosgoda has some stunning beaches close by, so grab something to read (and a kite if the wind’s blowing) and set off to one of these popular options:

• Bentota Beach (7 miles away).
• Ambalangoda Beach (9 miles away).
• Kalatura Beach (18 miles away).

Rent a car and see Kosgoda at your own pace. Love to head out into some nature? Opt for a full-size car. This vehicle is perfect for those who want adventure in the great outdoors. Just want to get comfortably from A to B and traveling with minimal luggage? If you aren’t planning on driving very far, a fuel-efficient mini is a great option.

You’ll be glad to know that there’s a wide variety of luxurious vehicles to rent in Kosgoda. What you end up opting for depends on your budget and what you’re planning to do. Prestige vehicles offer unparalleled comfort and class. If you feel like splashing out, why not pick an SUV with all the bells and whistles, or perhaps an upmarket medium-sized vehicle? Alternatively, if you’re just after a car to get from A to B as cheaply as possible, stick with an economy vehicle (or something else that’s unlikely to break the bank).

The left-hand side of the road is where you’ll be motoring along in Kosgoda. Take note that the controls of your rental car here, like the steering wheel and gearshift, will be on the opposite side of what you’re used to.

It can be hard to locate a parking space in Kosgoda. Once you get your hands on one, be sure to pay close attention to the signage. Overstaying the maximum time limit or leaving the car where you shouldn’t can put a dent in your vacation budget.
