About Hikkaduwa

Hikkaduwa is a beach town on Sri Lanka's south-west coast, known for surf breaks, coral reefs and sea turtles, a short way north of Galle.

Hikkaduwa stretches along the south-west coast of Sri Lanka, a strip of palm-fringed beach lined with guesthouses, cafés and surf shops. The Hikkaduwa Marine National Park protects a coral reef offshore, seen from glass-bottomed boats and by snorkellers, and turtles come to feed in the shallows. Surfers use the reef breaks along the shore.
