👍👍 Beautiful beach to enjoy your evening. The natural rock prevents the sea water from rushing away thus making it a shallow swimming pool. Not too crowded and morning and the evening are the best times to be. You will have to park your vehicle by the side of the road or a friendly Sri Lankan will let...

👍👍 This beach has spectacular views. Also this place is clean and comforting to be here most of the times.

😠 Sad day for the public and families that used to enjoy this public beach. It is being taken over illegally by a private influential person and being used for their own personal gain. We have used this public beach for many many years including our parents and grand parents. They say once they block...

😠 Dirtiest beach in Colombo area. No car park for park your vehicle. Don't be foolish visit there.
