Unawatuna's crescent beach was a major filming location for the 2000 film 'The Beach' starring Leonardo DiCaprio, putting the tiny village on the global travel map.
The village sits in Sri Lanka's Southern Province and was heavily impacted by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, which killed over 30,000 people across the country and reshaped the coast.
Unawatuna is home to the Rumassala rock formation, a 300-metre-high outcrop visible from the beach that Hindu legend claims was carried by the monkey god Hanuman.
The village's name derives from the Sinhala words 'una' (waves) and 'watuna' (beating), describing the dramatic coastal geography.
Unawatuna's reef ecosystem supports vibrant coral gardens and tropical fish visible from the beach, making it one of Sri Lanka's most accessible snorkelling spots without a boat.
