Hikkaduwa holidays – One of the newest and liveliest of the south coast holiday beach resorts
Hikkaduwa is located 98km south of Colombo. Hikkaduwa was a fishing village 20-30 years ago but has become one of the newest and liveliest of the southwest coast holiday beach resorts for package holidays. One of good things about Hikkaduwa becoming a new holidays resort is that the resort is not completely dominated by hotels.

Holidays to Hikkaduwa – Excellent snorkelling just offshore
The beach and sea offer equal opportunities for having a lot of fun. There’s excellent snorkelling just offshore and a number of dive sites for more serious scuba divers further out to sea, while good surf to the south of town attracts surfers.

Hikkaduwa holidays – Buddhist temple holds lots of paintings
Turning away from beach and sea, a trip inland will bring you to the Gangarama Maha Vihara, a Buddhist temple with lots of paintings. There's a lake with lots of bird life near Hikkaduwa, as well as other temples and monasteries within easy reach of the resort. You can also take a safari down the Madhu River in Balapitiya, or see the moon stone mines and cinnamon plantation in Meetoyagoda.
