The resplendent isle of Sri Lanka, nestled at the heart of the Indian Ocean, is replete with beautiful beaches whose inviting image attracts hundreds of tourists annually to its shores. One such beach, the Calido Beach, is also unique for a very special reason for it is the only beach from which the beginning of any river, in this case Kalu Ganga, a river that originates from the famed Adams Peak, can be seen for this river dissolves into the ocean next to Calido Beach. This beach, though relatively unknown, is actually visible from the sturdy Kalutara Bridge as well. While travelling from Colombo to Kalutara, travellers will be treated to the iconic sight of seeing the Kalutara Chaitya rising majestically on the left and the Kalutara Bodhiya on the right. Moreover, for those who look towards the ocean, on the right side of the bridge, glimpses of this great escape can be caught by observant travellers longing for a taste of paradise.
If it is your wish to have a sea bath, then this location may not be the best bet and a number of other beautiful beaches can be found for exactly this purpose, but shoreline is ideal for tourists and locals for one very good reason: it is relatively unknown. This means that the coastline is relatively undiscovered, less frequented and therefore, much cleaner than any of the other beaches. Calido Beach is also conveniently located a mere two kilometres from this proud city which ensures that locals and tourists alike in the vicinity have easy access to its pristine shores.
The coastline is an ideal place to spend a lazy evening and watch the sunset with a loved one and take long solitary walks along the beach as the restless sea laps at your feet or have your children play in the sand. Such lazy days spent lounging in the sun is exactly what resorts such as the Avani Kalutara Resort has in mind and this hotel in Kalutara, in terms of its location and facilities, is an impeccable choice and is undoubtedly one of the best hotel in Kalutara.
