Sunset at Wijaya Beach
Sunset at Wijaya Beach
When you imagine a perfect sandy tropical beach in your mind - this is the image you get (or you should get).
This is one of the most beautiful beaches I've seen while traveling Sri Lanka . It is very narrow with white sand, palm trees above, very little people and a natural reef some 20m from the shore where sea turtles can be spotted.

We stayed for 2 nights, and we both thought that the food and the public areas were amazing. We also booked the yoga classes which were great. The bungalows are very cool, they are open, so you get a pretty unique experience. The beds are a bit on the hard side, this should be improved.
