If being by the water is a major draw, Arugam Bay Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 1 mi (1.6 km) from central Arugam Bay. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Pottuvil Point and Pasarichenai Beach.
Find out about the history of Pottuvil when you spend time at Muhudu Maha Viharaya Temple. Stroll along the beaches or discover the area's coral reefs.
