Overview

Ready to dive into the vibrant energy of Sri Lanka’s favorite beach town? Hikkaduwa is where the party meets the reef. Whether you’re here to snorkel with giant sea turtles, catch your first wave, or simply enjoy a sunset cocktail on the sand, Hikkaduwa never disappoints.

The journey from Colombo to Hikkaduwa covers about 115 km and is one of the most popular coastal routes in the country. While the “Galu Kumari” train is iconic, a private taxi is the gold standard for travelers who want to avoid the crowds and arrive refreshed. By taking the Southern Expressway, you can reach the beach in just 1.5 to 2 hours. At Luxury Tours Sri Lanka, we make the transition from the city’s hustle to the ocean’s “Hikka vibes” smooth, safe, and air-conditioned.
