User reviews

"The beach is absolutely fantastic, with breathtaking views, and it's surprisingly peaceful. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the vicinity."

Nathan Farroway

"This beach boasts an incredible natural setting that's perfect for surfing. It's important to note that it's not to be confused with the Galle Unawatuna (Rumassala) jungle beach, as it's a completely separate location that's over 40 km away. If you're looking to visit this jungle beach (Weligama), it's easily accessible by vehicle, but be aware that the road may be too narro..."
