Hikkaduwa Holiday
beach resorts
Hikkaduwa is located 98km south of Colombo. Hikkaduwa was a fishing village 20-30 years ago but has become one of the newest and liveliest of the southwest coast holiday beach resorts for package holidays. One of good things about Hikkaduwa becoming a new holidays resort is that the resort is not completely dominated by hotels.
