Golden sand to walk at dusk, with mangrove boat trips on the river a few minutes inland.
A sandy beach at Balapitiya, 80 km south of Colombo, on the seaward side of the Madu Ganga river mouth. The river widens into a lake behind the town before draining into the ocean 4 km further on, and its Ramsar-listed wetland is the reason most visitors come.
