What to do
After enjoyable days spent surfing, diving, snorkeling, fishing or just basking on the beach in the Sri Lankan sunshine, watch the last of the red dusk sunset dip down into the Indian Ocean. Relax with a nice beverage or take a stroll along the beach and sample some of Hikkaduwa's seafood and nightlife. At night you may see a turtle coming ashore to lay her eggs in the sand and in the mornings you may be lucky enough to see the local fishermen hauling in their catch net!
Enjoy all the advantages that come with renting your own holiday house or room only in Hikkaduwa and take everything at your own pace.
As the Gallery shows, the views from the holiday villa of the mature jungle garden flora and fauna are simply gorgeous! You will see monkeys, fruit bats, iguanas and many rare bird species.
