Located 180km from Colombo, southern coast of Sri Lanka, Dikwella is a stunning long and peaceful sandy beach for inspiring morning walks, salty rejuvenating baths and of course surf! It’s the perfect spot to relax and replenish away from the crowded and noisy touristic beaches, but still close enough for a fun night out. You can find colourful traditional boats at the end of the beach and local fishermen easy to spot. Dikwella town is just 500m away, a bustling local small town where you can experience an authentic Sri Lankan lifestyle with its exciting fruit and veg market, local fish and coconut vendors. Just 5 min ride away the famous Hiriketiya bay with its modern bars and restaurants where to roam around the surf community and enjoy a party night. Dikwella is the perfect south coast stop for your Sri Lankan tour out of the bitten tracks! Splendid beach and authentic local community are not the only gems this spot has to offer; beautiful temples, lively fish market, lighthouses, and a giant Buddha (biggest in the country!) to discover. We have a free parking lot just next to the hotel. Tuk-tuks are available at any time outside, and we can arrange transfer for you in case.
