Bentota has a wide variety of activities, including stunning beaches, water sports, and lively streets that draw tourists looking for tropical enjoyment. On Sri Lanka’s southwest coast, this well-known resort town is situated between the ocean, the river, and the Bentota lagoon. It is the hub of the area’s water sports activity. Numerous conservation programs are underway in the region, and endangered sea turtles visit the beach to lay their eggs despite the activity.
Diverse marine life may also be found in the river and the dense mangrove swamps.
