Kirinda Beach

Kirinda Beach is at Kirinda, a small but charming town on the south-east coast of Sri Lanka. The turbulent waters, rock boulders, and stunning views of the landscape are all part of the package when you pay a visit to this relatively quiet beach. Enjoy a stroll along the seashore and soak in the pleasant atmosphere, or take a dip, away from the rocks and when the waters aren’t rough. If you’re feeling adventurous, hop on a boat for an exciting ride across the ocean to reach the nearer Great Little Basses Reef or, the farther Little Basses Reef. The Great and Little Basses Reefs house desolate offshore lighthouses, but the panoramas beneath them are merely magnificent. Shipwrecks and coral communities are aplenty at these reefs. .

Aviyana Ceylon Tours Diving

Diving at Kirinda Beach is not suitable as the currents are often intense. The Great and Little Basses Reefs near the beach are favourite spots, thanks to the shipwrecks, coral and marine life. The preferred time for diving is from March to April.

Visit the Lighthouses with Aviyana Ceylon Tours

Visit the Great and Little Basses Reefs lighthouses. An intriguing fact—these lighthouses oddly suffered little damage during the Indian Ocean Tsunami in 2004.

Aviyana Ceylon Tours Local Food tours

A host of food stalls spread across the shore. Don’t be fooled by the dingy exteriors, as these shops whip up fresh and delicious Sri Lankan style seafood.

Certain spots at the beach are suitable for a small dip. Swimming is not recommended and can be dangerous due to the often rough waters and the large rocks amid them.
