Welcome to Arcasia Tours Sri Lanka
Balapitiya Beach
Balapitiya
Powerpark is what it means in Sinhalese, this deserted but marvelous shore is a Tourist destination as not many visitors are aware of this fabulous beach paradise on the way to Galle heading down south.
Alluring honey-colored sand, blue water, brisk sunshine, surfable surf & palm fringed bay of tranquility attract no one in particular. It is deserted and empty indicating that there are only a few families of fishermen with their boats parked on the sand to be seen.
According to the locals, the Sea Warriors -- 'Muhudu Weerayo' originates from this area on the west coast. These warriors are said to have been defending the shores with boats, swords & daggers which they used for fishing in the Indian Ocean. Compared to the Stilt Fishermen found further south these warriors were good enough to spike at sharks found further deep into the Ocean. However, on the arrival of Buddhism into the country about 2500 years ago, these warriors converted their lives to become more & more passive, non violent & peaceful.
