Bentota
Bentota is often referred to as “surfer’s paradise” due to its popularity as a watersports destination. In this seaside city, home to around 40,000 inhabitants, you may experience a culture and humanity rooted in the sea. It’s a town with a river airport and it looks like a hotel by the sea, so naturally it draws attention. It is also well-known for its toddy, a refreshing alcoholic beverage prepared from coconut nectar.
