Hikkaduwa is the vibrant pioneer of our southern coast, a place where a bohemian spirit meets some of the most accessible coral reefs in the country. The town’s energy is infectious, filled with eclectic beachside cafes and surf schools that welcome everyone from beginners to pros. By day, you can snorkel with sea turtles in the protected marine park, and by night, enjoy a community that celebrates the joy of travel. It is a destination for those who want to feel the pulse of the island’s modern coastal culture.
