While there would be people who are looking for adventure, and would dive headfirst into the sea, most people visit the beach to chill and relax. If this is an activity that is on the top of your agenda, Hiriketiya beach makes allowances for that too. There are many trees fringing the beach line, and not all of them are palm trees. You can easily find a cool spot under the shade of a short and wide tree, where you can sit back and enjoy. Remember to bring a blanket, a book, and whatever else you think you want for some rest and relaxation.
