The Iranawila beach, situated in a quaint village, is a serene and picturesque location. Although the road leading to the beach may be bumpy in some areas, the journey is worth it as the path is scenic. Unlike the Chilaw beach, this beach is peaceful and boasts of a clear sandy shoreline without any stones. A leisurely stroll along the beach will lead you to a beautiful coconut tree-lined area.
