Soalmba Beach

About Soalmba Beach

Soalmba Beach is a stretch of coastline situated near Arugam Bay on Sri Lanka's East Coast, a region well known for its relatively calm seasonal waters and unhurried atmosphere. Visitors come here to walk along the shore, swim during the appropriate season, and simply enjoy the quieter pace that smaller beaches in this part of the island tend to offer. The surrounding landscape is typical of the eastern littoral, with coastal scrub and the particular quality of light that characterises this side of Sri Lanka. Being within reach of Arugam Bay, travellers can combine a visit with the town's wider facilities, restaurants and accommodation, while retreating to Soalmba for a degree of seclusion away from busier spots.
