Unawatuna

Southern Province

Unawatuna is a sheltered bay of golden sand a few minutes from Galle, with calm water that suits families and casual swimmers. Restaurants and guesthouses sit right along the beach.

Jungle Beach, reached by a short walk or a quick ride, is a quieter alternative, and the Japanese Peace Pagoda on the hill above has wide views. Evenings are lively along the beachfront.
