Wellawatta
is
a
working
city
with
overwhelming
diverse
activities.
Wellawatta
is
crowded
with
a
lot
of
people
and
the
area
is
overflowing
with
offices,
restaurants,
fast
foods
stalls,
cinemas,
shopping
malls,
houses,
apartments
and
restaurants.
The
setup
in
this
Colombo
beach
is
very
suitable
for
various
types
of
business
activities
and
Wellawatta
is
not
considered
as
a
destination
for
a
top-notch
beach
holiday
in
Sri
Lanka.
But
Wellawatta
also
inherits
the
qualities
of
some
of
the
best
beaches
on
the
west
coast
of
Sri
Lanka.
Especially
the
beach
around
marine
drive
attracts
a
considerable
number
of
people
in
their
free
time.
Still,
the
Colombo
beach
around
Wellawatta
is
not
on
the
radar
of
foreign
holidaymakers
mainly
due
to
the
rough
sea
and
underwater
current.
Therefore
the
tourism
infrastructure
and
facilities
are
at
the
low
end
when
it
compared
to
other
places
such
as
Bentota,
Hikkaduwa
and
Nilaveli.
Wellawatta
considered
being
one
of
the
best
places
for
a
family
outing
in
Colombo.
Nowadays
more
and
more
people
are
gathering
to
Colombo
beach
to
relax
after
hard
work
during
the
week.
During
the
weekend
and
after
office
hours
the
area
seems
little
empty
with
very
low
traffic.
Wellawatta
housed
some
of
the
best
restaurants
in
Colombo
at
same
times
they
provide
a
large
range
of
special
recipes
for
their
customers.
The
beaches
of
Wellawatta
is
especially
romantic
in
the
evening
with
the
sundown
and
it
unbelievable
tranquil
at
the
sunset.
You
hear
only
the
roar
of
the
mighty
Ocean
and
the
various
sounds
of
birds,
even
one
might
be
surprised
to
experience
such
a
calm
atmosphere
in
a
city
like
Colombo.
The
beaches
of
Wellawatta
end
in
popular
Mount
Lavinia
beach
in
the
direction
of
South
and
it
is
Colombo
harbour
towards
the
end
of
the
other
side.
One
can
clearly
see
the
World
trade
centre
or
twin
tower
from
the
distance.
The
beaches
around
Wellawatta
can
be
considered
as
clean
and
well-managed
Colombo
beach.
