THE RICE GRAIN SHOREPhoto by Wijenayake on Wikimedia CommonsSand you walk on for its texture rather than swim from; most accounts say it is not a swimming beach.
A beach near Pulmoddai in the north of Trincomalee District, where the shore is coarse, sea-polished grains that look like rice, which gives it its Tamil name. It sits close to the Pulmoddai mineral-sand workings, and a nearby temple draws weekend crowds.
