😠 Please, please never visit this place!!!
It was so incredibly terrible that we left crying.
We were there in the evening and thought it was already closed. A man came towards us and told us we could visit the reception center for 1500 LKR. We gave it to him and then he said exactly one sentence: "Th...

Weligama Beach (surf spot)
Tourist attraction

Weligama beach certainly didn't look like any of the pics in the other reviews. Perhaps during peak season it's tidied up? Out of the 4 pop...
