Ah, the beach between Weligama and Midigama - a true gem of a spot. Not only is it a stunning sight to behold, but it's also a safe haven for bathers, even in the roughest of waves. And when the tides are calm, you can even catch a glimpse of a natural pool. And the best part? It won't cost you a penny to enjoy this slice of paradise. But as with any idyllic location, there are downsides. Watch out for the local thieves who have a penchant for swiping visitors' belongings (yes, even their flip-flops) while they're frolicking in the waves. And while you're soaking up the sun and taking in the breathtaking sunset views, keep in mind that the land surrounding the beach is privately owned. It's a sad reality that sooner or later, this pristine slice of heaven will be swallowed up by yet another concrete jungle. But let's focus on the positives. During the season, delicious food stalls pop up and there's ample free parking available. So pack your bags, grab your sunscreen, and head on down to this little slice of heaven - just 100m away from the Galle Matara main road.

The beach experience varies with the season, and our recent visit in July during the monsoon season revealed a unique sight - the entire pool was submerged. The waves were quite intense during this time of the year, providing a thrilling experience for those seeking adventure.

Although there were plenty of waves during high tide, we were lucky enough to spot numerous turtles which made our beach experience enjoyable. Additionally, we had a great time sipping on fresh coconut and unwinding.
