Negombo is probably not a place for which you would fly to Sri Lanka. However, its advantage is the great proximity to the international airport, making it an ideal place for the first or last night in Sri Lanka. In addition, the local beach, more than three kilometers long, is quite nice

Negombo beach

Negombo has more than three kilometers long golden sand beach. In some places it is up to a hundred meters wide. There are a number of hotels along the beach.

Sale of fish directly on the beach

Directly on the beach it is possible to buy freshly caught fish – which is an attraction for tourists, quite a practical thing for locals.

Fishing boats in Negombo

The huge beach here is basically half empty, individual tourists are basically lost here. There are definitely more fishing boats. It is possible to arrange a ride on the sea

Sri Lankan lunch

Noon heat is ideal to survive in a restaurant with excellent, spicy and after a long time a bit monotonous Sri Lankan food

Dinner in Negombo

There is nothing better than having a fresh dinner right at the street stall. And where to go from Negombo? For example to Kandy or to the elephants to Pinnawala
