The beach gets busy but you get the enjoy your swim and suf session despite the crowd. Since the beach is abit narrow you feel alot of people but mostly they are there to chill just like you. Wonderful atmosphere.
Hiriketiya was a great spot with beautiful beaches and plenty of energy. There are lots of people surfing, which gives the beach a lively vibe, even though we didn’t surf ourselves. The food scene was really enjoyable - Smoke & Bitters was definitely worth a visit, even if it’s on the pricier side. If you’re looking for somewhere quieter, the beach at Dikwella is just around the corner and less crowded.
Amazing Beach town. So many beautiful beaches within close proximity. Loved the beach hopping. Great Bars. Smoke & Bitters & RAA have amazing drinks and food and a great vibe . lovely little cafes & restaurant and friendly locals
a beautiful place in SriLanka, great for surfing, both adults and kids, waves of all sizes, and super friendly people. Many local places around to enjoy great food. A really value for money place. I am super happy we went there
Great to enjoy the sea and the beach which was nice and calm but also had waves further away for the surfers. The cocktail bars on the beach really add a lot to this location as opposed to many other beaches in Sri Lanka. Some of the restaurant's had some super dishes which were a real fusion of east and west. Also a few more places to explore and enjoy are Dickwella beach, Blue beach, Hummanaya blowhole and the dondra area.
It’s emerging and as such choice is large and prices reasonable. There’s plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Bars are varied from top end cocktail bars to beach shacks. Standards are high. Beaches are perfect.
