User reviews

"This beach is absolutely stunning and provides a secure environment for swimming in the ocean. The water is shallow and there are no unexpected changes in tides, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling as well. Additionally, they offer facilities for rinsing off with fresh water after enjoying a dip in the sea."

Janith Silva

"The beach is absolutely stunning. However, it is important for both tourists and locals residing in the area to maintain cleanliness in this area. If this is achieved, it has the potential to become another renowned tourist destination."
