Fishing in Beruwala

Fishing is one of the staple industries in the Southern coast of Sri Lanka. Beruwala is home to a rather busy fishing harbour that is colourful, busy and a kaleidoscope of noise, perfect for a stroll in the morning. You can watch the fishermen hauling in their catch and even help if you ask nicely. The people of Beruwala are very friendly and obliging.

If you stay in a nearby resort like Cinnamon Bey Beruwala, the walk to the harbour would take just a few minutes. There’s so much life and energy packed into the small port, it is the perfect venue to experience Sri Lankan local culture from an up-close and personal point of view.
