Sea Side

Mount Lavinia Beach 

Mount Lavinia Beach is Sri Lanka's main sea-bathing spot. Here, depending on season, the waves can be swimmable and it's host to some amazing sunsets. Note, however, that this is not a bay like Unawatuna. The waters is swimmable only at certain times of the year and can be very rough, with undertow. If no one else is swimming, don't swim.

If you're just wading up to your hips and building sand castles, however, Mount Beach is fine. Around 6 PM it also has some amazing sunsets. If you live here or are only visiting Sri Lanka for a few days, Mount Beach is a decent dip in the sea.
