Nestled on the picturesque shores of Karaitivu in Sri Lanka, The East Beach offers an idyllic escape into nature's beauty. Stretching over a tranquil length, this serene destination is adorned with soft, golden sands that glimmer under the radiant sun. However, visitors should note that activities here are more aligned with relaxation and soaking in the natural ambiance rather than adventurous water sports, as surfing is not facilitated. When it comes to conveniences, The East Beach has few amenities, so plan your trip accordingly, although it does not have lifeguards on duty, bathroom access, and does not permit dogs. The emphasis here is on enjoying the beach's natural beauty and calmness, making it a perfect spot for those looking to unwind away from the bustling city life.

For those feeling peckish, the vicinity of The East Beach offers a selection of charming local eateries, each presenting a taste of authentic Sri Lankan cuisine. Among the notable spots is "Karai Cuisine," known for its exquisite seafood dishes prepared with fresh, local ingredients.
