Hambantota Warnings or Dangers

Posted by hambantota | 5:20 AM

Please be aware that the sea current in Hambantota is very strong. Even being a very good swimmer locals warn you of swimming at this beach. Also be careful when walking along the beach, if you get close to the waves, they are sometimes so strong, that you might fall and even be drawn into the sea! Once you are out there it will be difficult to get in again. If you are not a REALLY good swimmer stay away from the sea. Walk along and enjoy the beach, but don't get too close to the waves. Even for the experienced fishermen it is an every day challenge to go out into the sea. In the morning hours (7 AM until 09 AM) the sea is more quiet.
