Hikkaduwa has long been one of Sri Lanka's most popular beach spots. It is located 98 km south of Colombo, the capital. The train ride was just over two hours via the 'express' train, which only stopped at a handful of stations along the way. The town is located on the Indian ocean and the highway runs directly through the center of the town, which makes shopping a semi-dangerous endeavor! There are a number of hotels and guesthouses and some fabulous restaurants.
Sounds like a delightful day. Wish I could pop over.
