Camping on a beach that most Arugam Bay visitors never reach, about 90 minutes from the Kumana gate.

The beach of Panama, a village 12 km south of Arugam Bay and the last settlement before Kumana National Park. Fishing boats and a few surfers share soft sand with little shelter, a rock cluster you can climb for the view and a concrete platform used by campers; bring your own water.
