Rested in February 2013 in Long Beach. You are right, if you want the pleasure of swimming in the ocean, you should go to Unawatuna. We were taken by a Sri Lankan tuk-tuk for 300 rupees round trip. I waited in Unawatuna as long as necessary. Knows Russian quite well, Calls himself PETER.
We had lunch in a cafe to the right of the hotel exit or on the beach in Unawatuna. Dinner for two: shrimp or fish with french fries (lynx), add some fresh vegetables there (decent portions) cost up to 1000 rupees. With beer 1200-1300 rupees. Their beer is delicious Lyon.
We went on an excursion to Kandy from a tour operator for 40 dollars. Impressions are twofold. I did not like the organization of the excursion itself - most of the time was taken by moving.
In Colombo, they hired local minivans for 8,000 rupees (for 6 people) for the whole day and organized an excursion on their own. But you need to prepare for such a trip: know the objects you want to see and have maps. We got an excellent driver without an elementary understanding of Russian, and we are not strong in English. Communicated through an English-Russian phrase book.

We were in April 2013. Unawatuna - 200 rupees round trip, Galle - 700 rupees with stops, arrival at the fort, expectations, etc. (but you need to confidently stand on your price and bargain). Matara - with a lagoon, etc. - 1500 round trip, but it's far enough. They take you to Lake Kogalla and local spice gardens for 100 rupees, or maybe for free (but tuk-tukers are paid by those who keep them to take tourists to them)
