What travelers are saying

Good and clean beach morning walk was nice but evening sunset excellent if sky is clear we loved that Soft sand loved walking on it

The beach was vast, very clean and the sea a perfect temperature, although with quite big waves and a strong undercurrent, although I believe it is expected at that time of year.

The beach has glorious sand, lovely warm water and very few people when we went in March 2017.

A very nice BEACH

The ocean was too rough for us to swim, still we felt this sandy beach to be one of the best that we saw.

peaceful. maybe even too quite

we spent 3 days in bentota. the beach is clean, quiet. it was almost empty when we were there. we had long walks and the cool water and quite sand were a bit too empty for a family with 3 boys.

Unpolluted

Unpolluted serene beach. but if you are a lady travelling alone, a minor nuisance and the so called BeachBoys- young loiterers.Also, don't take a Tuk Tuk alone, if u are a lady travelling late at night.

Beautiful Beach

It was the monsoon season so the tide was fairly high and water was very rough. Swimming was permitted but with caution. Undercurrent would push you unknowingly down the beach! Very clean and water was a lovely warm temperature. Great fun was had by us...More
