Popular because of its proximity to the airport, Negombo Beach boasts a long and broad stretch of golden sand lined with resorts, bars, and restaurants. Although it attracts fishermen and people who fly into town, the sheer size of the beach makes it easy to find a quiet spot and relax. Take a long, peaceful walk beside the shore, or hang out in a beachside bar and people-watch. For travelers who use our online itinerary creator, Negombo holidays become easier to arrange, with trips to the Negombo Beach and other attractions mapped out and timetabled.

We visited Negombo beach, the bit outside Goldi sands. It is the most filthy and disgusting place you can find. The plastic pollution is appalling on its own but in addition an army of stray dogs...

Pretty nice place. Clean, warm, sometimes windy. Perfect place to watch the sunset. Pretty romantic after dusk. There are a few cafe's and restaurants with ocean view. Some fast food stalls. Also several salesman walking around offering their goods (not too annoying though). Beach is not for swimming!

It is really lovely around 6:15am (sunrise time) and around 6:00pm (sunset). Did some exercise in the morning, only few people and tranquillity. sunset times is busy but good for walks… Big waves in March and not for swimming! P.S. please do not leave garbage on the beach.
