A popular beach destination for both locals and visitors, Hikkaduwa or ‘Hikka’ as it is known by many, is especially sought after by travellers who want a vacation with a party vibe. When it comes to a lively atmosphere ‘Hikka’ has plenty to offer with many cafes, restaurants and bars with good food and great music. Action extends to the water too: snorkelling and diving amongst the corals, schools of tropical fish and old shipwrecks.
The surf off Hikka bay is also regarded as one of the best surfing spots in the island.
