    Very nice place to visit in the evening attractive scenes can be observed during the sunset Most of the time young couples were there , but not a matter of walking with kids Free vehicle parking is available and around 10 cars can be parked easily sometimes a mobile sweet shop ( choon pan) can be seen A bad thing is that visitors put their garbage here and there requesting you to put your garbage into dustbins which are located at the entrance ( car park) No need tickets to entering and free for public

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting Mahamodara Beach Park & Marine Walk and it was a fantastic experience. The place is a true gem, offering visitors the opportunity to explore the stunning Sri Lankan coastline. The walking trails are also well-maintained and it is a great choice for anyone looking to take a leisurely stroll along the marine walk.

    Nice walking path located in Mahamodara Beach. Parking facilities are available for vehicles. It is one of the best place to see the beautiful view of sun set.

    I've been to this beach park many times, having lived in the area for two months. It's a lovely local hang out spot with morning and evening walkers, young couples looking for privacy, teenagers playing soccer in the evening, young men smoking hash, families hanging out, occasional foreigners, cows grazing, evening horse walking (some guys who live nearby take their horses there in the evenings) and a young friendly tanned colored dog (she's friendly, don't worry about her playful bites to get attention). It's a safe place, although as an female Asian foreigner, I have been harassed by the teenagers and the hash smokers a handful of times in the day and evening. But they are surprisingly silent when I walk by with a male friend or even a white female friend. They eventually got used to me and stopped the harassment. There is also a family there in the evenings whose father has trained his young daughter and son to ask foreigners for money. They left me alone after I yelled at the father one time when I witnessed him asking his daughter to ask me for money. Outside of these specific bothersome people, it's really a nice vibe with amazing sunsets. It's quieter in the mornings with just as beautiful sunrises if you walk down to the beach to catch it. You'll get genuine smiles from the people who live around there. On the weekends, there is a fun happy vibe, no harassments, families with their children just having a fun time at the beach. There is quite a bit of trash around but it's not specific to this location, a result of the country's wider problem of waste management. There are food stalls at the beginning of the marine walk - fruit juice, cut fruits, sandwiches and clementines. Sometimes you can find seasonal fruits. Late Jan to early Feb, I've seen a guy selling rambutans, and mangosteens though at steep prices since it's out of season. If you walk just a few meters towards the training hospital, there's an honest guy with a truck selling fruits most evenings. The other side of the park, past the parking lot before the bridge, there's another cut fruit stall, a short eats place (but not very good), and in January, I noticed a guy selling mangoes. There is a barely noticeable path to go from the marine walk to the main road facing shops where you can find a fruit stall and a delicious short eats place (best egg roti at 120 SLR). From the park and parking lot, Oak Ray restaurant is a few steps away for a great all you can eat lunch deal at 2500 SLR tax included. It is very peaceful at night. Barely any light, soothing sound of the waves and fireflies bringing magic to the experience. I will miss this place a lot when I leave!

    I recently visited Mahamodara Beach Park and was pleasantly surprised by the serene and tranquil experience it offered. This hidden gem on Sri Lanka's southern coast provided a perfect getaway from the bustling city life. Here's what made my visit to Mahamodara Beach Park a truly delightful one: Serene Beach Ambiance: The park boasts a pristine, unspoiled beach with soft golden sand and crystal-clear waters. The peaceful atmosphere was incredibly soothing, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and rejuvenation. I enjoyed long walks along the shore, breathing in the fresh sea breeze and listening to the gentle waves crashing on the beach. Scenic Landscape: The park's surroundings are simply breathtaking. The lush greenery and coconut palm trees create a picturesque backdrop against the azure sea. The well-maintained gardens and clean pathways made strolling around the park a pleasure. Variety of Activities: Mahamodara Beach Park offers a range of activities for visitors of all ages. I particularly enjoyed engaging in beach volleyball with some fellow travelers. There are also opportunities for swimming, snorkeling, and picnicking, making it an excellent destination for families and friends to bond and have fun together. Safety and Cleanliness: The park's management takes great care in maintaining a safe and clean environment. Lifeguards are present to ensure visitors' safety during water-based activities, and the beach is regularly cleaned, making it a safe and hygienic spot for sunbathing and swimming. Peaceful Retreat: What sets Mahamodara Beach Park apart is the tranquil ambiance it offers. It is relatively less crowded compared to other popular beaches in the area, allowing visitors to truly unwind and connect with nature. Whether it was watching the stunning sunset or simply basking in the natural beauty, the park provided a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. While Mahamodara Beach Park may not offer the bustling nightlife and beachside attractions found in other tourist hotspots, it is the perfect destination for those seeking a serene retreat and an opportunity to reconnect with nature. Whether you want to enjoy a peaceful day by the sea or engage in recreational activities with loved ones, this park has something for everyone. Overall, my experience at Mahamodara Beach Park was exceptional, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet and beautiful beach getaway in Sri Lanka. The park's tranquil atmosphere, scenic beauty, and variety of activities make it a perfect destination for travelers seeking a laid-back and memorable beach experience. I look forward to returning to Mahamodara Beach Park on my next visit to Sri Lanka!

    Nice place. But there are people asking for money saying it is for someone's kidney problem. Be aware of them. Don't give money

    It's an awesome place for couples to enjoy their time. The wall itself is named for that as "The Great wall of lovers". There's a sea turtle hatchery near. And the view of the ocean from the point is a more beautiful one.

    (Translated by Google) The beach is very good for swimming, the waves are extinguished on rocks near the shore. There is only one nuance - cemetery and crematorium in the immediate vicinity of the beach, if it does not care, then you can safely stay. (Original) Пляж очень хорош для купания, волны гасятся о скальные породы недалеко от берега. Здесь только один нюанс - кладбище и крематорий в непосредственной близости к пляжу, если это не волнует, то смело можно оставаться.

    This place is nicely composed with a lovely marine walkway. Parking facility is provided but limited and acceptable as there is some ground space between the road and the beach. Once you are at the farmost observation deck it creates amazing vistas. Galle Fort is visible and when it gets dark the feelings become very romantic with the breeze. Safety of this deck is very high where the floor is concrete and provided with a masonary guard wall. You may capture a beautiful memory for sure.
