Closest beach to Colombo and has a colonial touch in the surroundings. Just 12 km. south of Colombo, Mount Lavinia is an immediate city suburb and the beach is one of the better known even in colonial times. It lies alongside a wind swept headland jutting into the waters of the Indian Ocean. The sand is the softest and the waves calm and clear. The Governor''s House built in 1805 by Sir Thomas Maitland, now forms part of the famous Mount Lavinia Hotel.Location
