Inland Tuk Tuk dirt shortcuts between Arugam Bay and Whisky Point
3 Answers
Yes, there is a very scenic dirt shortcut that cuts through Urani village and runs along the edge of the lagoon, completely bypassing the busy Pottuvil town center. It drops you right near the road to Whisky Point. However, it is strictly a dry-season track. If it has rained heavily, do not attempt it; the mud is deep and thick, and a rental tuk-tuk will sink to the axles instantly.
Make sure your surfboards are strapped down extremely tight if you take that route. The potholes on the dirt section are vicious and will bounce your boards right off the roof rack.
That lagoon shortcut is beautiful at sunrise. Just drive slowly because there are massive herds of water buffalo that sleep right on the dirt track.
