For a public bus station not bad with helpful people. The slow government buses and small AC mini buses are here. But the highway bus to colombo is not here but next to the cricket stadium

Galle central bus station is the main point of galle. Srilanka... You can find all buses to go any destination. Like matare mirissa etc. To go mirissa you have to take matare bus. Mirissa is nice Attractive place in galle.. and the cost is only 60 srilankan shil.
Galle central bus stand. Two storey building with pastry shops, stationery shops, cool spots, dress shops, saloons and etc....
Small bus stand ! You can take buses to pitigala, akurassa, karapitiya, wakwalla , Baddegama , udugama, ect.....
Rather crowded with busses not stopping at the right gate depending on where they are going. Just ask one of the drivers where the bus for “xxxx” goes. Bus to Unawatuna beach is the one to Matera. Cost 25Rs per person.
Longest bus stand in srilanka.Need to improve maintain service.
If you are foreign traveler never ask the about bus time tables from tuk-tuk/taxi drivers. They will not tell you true details about available buses and most probably cheat you. They make you have tuk-tuk service to where you go. There are several automated LCD screens displaying bus time tables inside ground flow of the main hall. Also you can ask time keepers, they will help you they stay 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM every day in small office cubicles located in ground flow main hall. After office time you can consult the police post located near south corner of the bus station. Both short distance and long distance running buses and also Highway buses to different places start here. To Colombo Airport you have to take highway bus to Kadawathe and then it is easy to take TAXI. Normally bus service are operated 04:00 AM to 10:30 PM. if you are going to Colombo in night, you can catch buses in front of Bus station (opposite side of beach) coming from Kataragama, normally around every 1 hour or 1.5 hour.
Traditional old railway station with some authentic features. Well positioned close to the Fort and next door to the bus station for co-ordinating travel arrangements. Tickets to Colombo aren’t pre-bookable, you need to turn up at the station from one hour prior to departure and buy from the ticket office. Taxi drivers will try to intercept you and give you the hard sell for a taxi as alternative to the train but the costs are extortionate in comparison. As soon as you exit the station, the drivers descend upon you. They are generally friendly and nice, but I would suggest having a definite idea of where you’d like to go and being prepared to be bold in your statement. Otherwise, you’ll find yourself at the whim of the driver’s personal agenda, which is based upon taking you to places where he’ll earn a commission on your spending. It can really ruin an otherwise great excursion. Obviously not every driver is like this, but I wished we were more cognizant of this behavior prior to our visit.
