Learn more about Pasikuda

The shallow, turquoise waters of Pasikuda Bay invite hours of safe swimming along its pristine white sand beaches. Snorkel the vibrant coral reefs during morning hours, then visit nearby Batticaloa to explore its historic Dutch fort.

This is one among the famous beaches in Sri Lanka. Water is crystal clear through-out the year except in monsoon months. There are several star hotels along the coast where you can spend your holidays fruitfully. According to me, "Malu Malu" is the best accommodation though it is quite expensive. 

Sun bathing or hiding yourself under a Palmyra tree are very exiting ways of relaxing in this amazing beach. And also you can take a guided boat tour according to your interest. Probably, you can see lots of corals and variety of colourful fish while riding the boat. If you are lucky enough, you will be able to snap a sea turtle too.
