Now in Hikkaduwa, the sea is less or less stormy, though today it’s cloudy for half a day, the waves are very small near the coral reef, meter-long turtles come to the beach in the morning, through airbnb tolerable options from $ 10 (including discounts).

The calm sea is always in Unawatuna, where the reef closes the beach. But the price tag is higher there.

You are not worried in vain, because the ocean in the Lanka region is very harsh, and only a real specialist in Lanka can answer you which hotels have their own protected lagoons. I can give you the name of the Russian girl Alevtina, who works in Lanka. That's who literally touched each coast with his hands. On Facebook, her nickname is Ale V Tina. Ask her - she will tell you exactly where in Lanka there are such places as you need

Guys ... and on hotels, maybe you can advise something in Hikkaduwa .. otherwise even tripadviser gives out strange options. Tell me from experience. Price quality. Thanks
Does the option of separately ground and flight regarding Sri Lanka work? Or all the same package is more optimal?

There are calm lagoons for swimming, if you choose:
- any hotel in Unawatuna;
- any hotel in Hikkaduwa.
And the Cinnamon Bay Hotel.

The most booked hotel in Hikkaduwa is Hikka Tranz.
"Does the separate land and flight option regarding Sri Lanka work? Or is the package option more optimal?"
- Works. If you find airfare and accommodation cheaper than on a tour. Plus you will find a transfer from the airport to the hotel for $30.

Only Cinnamon Bay
http://www.booking.com/hotel/lk/cinnamon-bey.uk.html
and Hikka Tranz by Cinnamon
http://www.booking.com/hotel/lk/chaaya-tranz-hikkaduwa.ru.html
and no more.
Usually, travelers who book air, hotel and transfer separately do not get cheaper.

AllOverTheWorld, at the expense of China Trans, aka Hikka Trans, well, that's it. The beach is away from the hotel, you need to go to the lagoon. there is Lanka Super Colors, there is Hikkaduwa Beach (we rested in it), it is located at the edge of the ocean. You have dinner overlooking the ocean, there is my review on the site. There are also guesthouses right by the beach located along the lagoon. We saw both Russians and Germans there. There is a choice, it all depends on your preferences and financial capabilities. You can do it yourself, but then you can buy a ticket for several months, but it happens that the package is cheaper.

According to more than half of tourists vacationing in Lanka, not only from Ukraine, but from the CIS countries - Hikka Tranz is the best not only in Hikkaduwa, but throughout Sri Lanka. This confirms the number of people on each plane, which are divided into holidaymakers at Hikka Tranz and holidaymakers at other hotels.
He does not like only those who cannot afford it and those who understand Lanka.
But to swim in the lagoon crowded with tourists near Hikka Tranz, you can stay not only in 3-star hotels nearby in Hikkaduwa, but even in guest houses. The choice is huge for any wallet.
At work, I increasingly come across the fact that experienced tourists who have visited Lanka repeatedly try not to choose hotels with lagoons, and prefer to buy a package tour than to book everything separately again.

agent_borabora from what hundreds?))) Are you kidding?)) There are not hundreds of hotels in Hikkaduwa, this is the time. And secondly, many are led by what they are offered in travel agencies, or do you not agree with that either?)

agent_borabora, it's funny to read this .. for those who can't afford it?)) Well, actually Hikkaduwa beach is more expensive for comparison., but that's not even the point. And there are 5 * star hotels in Sri Lanka, I will surprise you. Who said that he is the best? Where are the walls leaking from condensation? where there is no beach in front of the hotel, but a reef right away? well..very strange the best place in Sri Lanka. But..to each his own.

Oh, someone hurt that he can't afford a more expensive hotel)
So, I will also surprise someone) That Hikka Tranz is not even 5 stars)
Firstly, no one said that there are a hundred hotels in Hikkaduwa.
Secondly, travel agencies offer several options, and the tourist makes his own decision.
Once again, in larger letters, I repeat for those who read, but do not want to understand:
"Hikka Tranz" is considered the best hotel IN THE OPINION OF THE TOURISTS!
These shortcomings in this hotel were not noticed by any tourist.
Please do not confuse your personal feelings about a 3 star hotel with facts.
It is very funny when a tourist rested the only time in a 3-star hotel and writes that all other hotels are more expensive - bad))))))))

I will express my thoughts on where and how to go to Hikkaduwa.
So:
- if the trip is planned for a short period (up to 2 weeks), it makes sense to take a package tour so as not to waste precious time on various organizational issues (transfer, search for housing, normal places to eat, etc.),
- if the trip is in the wintering format (1 month or more), it is better to rent a house, a villa, a room with a toilet and a kitchen, etc. Eat in local cafes and / or cook on your own. If you eat only in cafes (they cook tasty and affordable), you can rent an ordinary good and inexpensive room (the same Charaka Lanka $ 10 / day with the right approach to booking :))
What else to keep in mind:
-- The first line is a small strip of land between the beach and the busy main road. It is advisable to take a room with an ocean view, otherwise you will have to enjoy the sound of the surf and the horns of Sri Lankan crazy basses and other traffic, especially if the room has poor sound insulation.

Personally, I came for 2.5 months, immediately extended my visa, unknowingly rented the second floor of a house with windows on the main road (everything was super but too noisy). After 4 days, I rented a room with a kitchen in a villa (center, 500m from the main road and railway lines, a quiet place, a hill, a panoramic view of the jungle, $ 10 / day). I like the beach and the ocean more on the Tiranagama-Kumarakanda segment (compared to the beach, the reef is cleaner, large open spaces, there are practically no people, see photo)
