Very Open & nice

Well kept beach, clean, no unwanted hangars on, easy to access, and safe vehicle park. Good place for a sea bath or beach sports.

Good for visiting with kids

The beach has a lifeguard and is quite safe. There are markers to indicate where to swim and where to avoid.
Public bathrooms are not very clean, and gets a bit crowded in the evenings.

A must on any trip to the city, Casuarina Beach is interesting for both the journey to the place (across islands) and the fun (music, happy folks, local cuisine) at the beach.

My first time but my partners went back after 50 years. Still relatively unspoiled and great to see lifeguards, though there were idiots who swam outside the flags!!! so far jot too overdeveloped but let it stay that way.

Lovely beach off the beaten path
Dec 2019 • Family
A bit of a trek to reach, out beyond Jaffna town, but well worth the effort. You will find an uncrowded, lovely beach, with warm, shallow water, and super soft sand.
There are modest changing facilities, a few vendors near the entrance, and only a small fee the enter (less than $3 for a van load).
Very nice place to spend the afternoon and cool off. (We were also treated to some entertainment with a group of locals celebrating a birthday with a sound system and banging beats).

Very nice beach for a safe bath

It's a very clean beach with shallow water. Safety is very well provided with life guards and should be there before dusk

hi,
you can drive upto the ferry port and there will be a free parking available there. After that its a short walk to the ferry port. There aren't regular service to Delft Islands - so you may have to hire a private boat for the journey which will take approx 1.5 hrs each way (cost not known). I suggest you go early morning as it can get really crowded with people going to see naga deepa viaharaya and nagapooshani kovil.

That's not practical, unless you hire a separate boat for it. The ferries to Nagadeepa & Delft start from the same place, therefore you need to come back & go to Delft. Thats because they are public ferries. If you hire a private boat which will be more expensive, you can visit Nagadeepa & Delft in the same day. Please not that you need to check the weather conditions before going to Delft.

Is the map location shown on Tripadvisor correct?

Hell no. Trust the map when you do a Google search. It's about 20km from Jaffna
