Unawatuna Beach is one of the most beautiful and lively beaches in Sri Lanka! With its golden sand, clear blue waters, and calm waves, it’s perfect for swimming and relaxing. The beach is lined with cozy cafes and restaurants, making it ideal for enjoying a meal or a sunset drink by the sea. The sunsets here are absolutely stunning, and the overall vibe is both peaceful and vibrant. A must-visit spot on the southern coast for anyone looking to experience the best of Sri Lanka’s beach life!

As soon as i saw the waves on the beach i knew it was a calm place. The beach was clean and not crowded in july and the sand was soft and clean. The waves are strong now for swimming I volunteer there for one week and it was one of the best experiences to be there for free I recommend visit around july to September for relax and not crowded.

This place is an absolutely beautiful location, perfect for those looking to enjoy a relaxing and refreshing experience. The water is not too deep, making it a safe and enjoyable spot for swimming. During the afternoon, the sun shines brightly, creating a warm and vibrant atmosphere. However, as night falls, the entire setting transforms into something completely different and magical. The area is famous for its nightlife, with a lively and energetic ambiance that makes it a great place to unwind and soak in the evening vibes. Whether you're visiting for a daytime swim or an exciting night out, this spot offers a unique experience at any time of the day!

A great place to swim and relax in the sun. There are plenty of restaurants and bars around, and we loved watching the sunset here. Perfect spot to chill.🌅🏊🏻‍♂️

Nice and large beach (long and wide) with slightly coarser sand. Nice sandy bottom! Reefs and rocks outside protect against big waves. The majority of visitors are tourists and this is reflected in the range of activities along the beach; many sun beds, restaurants, diving centres (I recommend the fantastic Sun Diving on the north side of the beach), snorkelling, jet ski rental, boat trips etc. If you like a lot of people and activity, the beach is probably worth 5 stars. Personally, I prefer small, peaceful beaches with no commercial elements other than simple beach bars BUT the large space on Unawatuna Beach make me give 4 stars.
