With plenty of restaurants and bars, ‘Una’ is buzzing with sun, fun, music and life all year round, and the best time to visit Unawatuna is in fact, any time.
If you want a break, the protected Galapiteala and Napoleon Reefs over the bay offers safe swimming, and there are plenty of other natural and cultural attractions too.
