Beruwala is known for its splendid beaches and coastal views, known as the ‘Golden Mile’ beach which is a mile long expanse of sandy shores and azure waters lined with beautiful hotels and beach restaurants where one can savour scrumptious seafood, local street food and other international cuisines while taking in the ocean view, as the sun slowly goes down.
People yearn to escape from the daily stress and hustle bustle for some much needed rest and recreation, made possible since the atmosphere at this beach is calm and serene, the perfect ingredients for the ideal holiday you’ve been seeking. There are water sport activities that are available on offer from most hotels and resorts such as parasailing, water skiing and deep-sea fishing.
Apart from soaking some sun and sea, discover other points of interest in Beruwela during your stay such as visiting the beautiful landscaped gardens at Brief Gardens, the country home of Bevis Bawa, brother of renowned Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa for his contemporary and tropical modern architecture; encounter history of early Muslim settlements in ancient Ceylon by visiting the Kechimalai mosque which stands white and bright on the edge of a cliff facing the ocean; revel in spirituality by seeing the Kande Viharaya, a sacred Buddhist temple and archaeological site and one of Sri Lanka’s four international lighthouses, the Barberyn Island lighthouse that sits by the ocean encircled by swaying palm trees.
