Unawatuna

Unawatuna is a coastal town in Galle district of Sri Lanka. Unawatuna is a major tourist attraction in Sri Lanka and famous for its beautiful beach and corals. Unawatuna is rich in its biodiversity. Over sixty species of endemic birds have been sighted in the locality by the ornithologist, Clive Byers. Off the coast of Unawatuna, beneath the Indian Ocean lies a number of coral reefs, shipwrecks, and a great variety of fish and turtles. The Rumassala coral reefs at the east end of the Galle Harbor attract divers, but are now endangered due to possible port development. Eco treks in the shrub jungles of Rumassala are also available.

Whether you spend your time on the beach or venture out into the surrounding jungles, this historic city is a great stop for nature lovers.
