Unawatuna Beach
This beach near Galle is one of most famous in Sri Lanka, and it deserves a mention thanks to its crescent of golden sand and its sheltered position in a bay that makes it perfect for swimming. It’s very popular with both tourists and locals (who often stop by for an afternoon frolic in the surf). This sandy locale is an ideal spot for those who like a few facilities; there are sunbeds to rent, exotic fruit sellers, and plenty of small restaurants and boutiques just a short walk away.
