Beach Bliss and Adventure on Sri Lanka's Coast

With over 1,300 kilometers of golden coastline, Sri Lanka is a paradise for beach lovers, surfers, and sunseekers. From lively resort towns to untouched coastal escapes, every beach tells a different story — of serenity, adventure, and tropical charm.

South Coast – Where Beauty Meets Relaxation

The southern coast of Sri Lanka is home to some of the island’s most popular beach destinations — Bentota, Unawatuna, Hikkaduwa, and Mirissa.

• Bentota offers luxury resorts, calm waters, and river safaris.
• Unawatuna is perfect for snorkeling and relaxed seaside dining.
• Hikkaduwa attracts both surfers and coral reef explorers.
• Mirissa, with its crescent-shaped bay, is the island’s whale-watching capital.

Here, every sunrise and sunset paints the sky with colors of pure bliss.
