Besama Beach, nestled in the serene coastal town of Uswetakeiyawa, Sri Lanka, is an idyllic destination that stretches over a distance that boasts a majestic view, with its sands glowing under the tropical sun. Unlike the typical bustling tourist spots, Besama Beach offers a tranquil retreat for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle. The beach does not have a wide array of activities typically found at more commercial beaches, reflecting its serene and unspoiled nature. Besama Beach has few amenities, so plan your trip accordingly, although it does not allow dogs, does not have facilities for the disabled, lacks restroom facilities, prohibits camping and surfing, and maintains a strict policy against nude bathing. This absence of amenities underlines the beach's raw and natural appeal, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the simple joys of sunbathing, strolling along the shore, and enjoying the peaceful ambiance.

Nearby restaurants offer a variety of culinary experiences, catering to the diverse tastes of visitors. For authentic Sri Lankan cuisine, "The Coconut Tree" is highly recommended, providing a taste of the island's rich flavors through traditional dishes. For visitors craving seafood, "Ocean's Edge Café" serves fresh, locally-sourced seafood prepared in both local and international styles. Additionally, "Spice Route" offers a fusion of Asian cuisines, allowing diners to embark on a gastronomic journey. Each of these restaurants adds to the overall Besama Beach experience, ensuring that visitors can enjoy not just the views but also the tastes of Sri Lanka.

When it comes to accommodations, Besama Beach is nearby several hotels that cater to a range of preferences and budgets.

Budget-conscious travelers will find comfort and convenience at "The Palms Rest," a cozy hotel known for its warm hospitality and affordable rates. Each hotel near Besama Beach provides a different slice of Sri Lankan hospitality, ensuring that every visitor finds a perfect match for their stay.

Parking at Besama Beach is straightforward, with available spaces for visitors to use. However, it's important to note that there isn't a designated parking lot, meaning parking is informal and on a first-come, first-served basis.

Despite this informality, the convenience of nearby roadside parking without any fees adds to the charm and ease of accessing the beach, making spontaneous beach trips all the more appealing.

A fun fact about Besama Beach that captivates many visitors is its historical significance and the local folklore surrounding it. The beach is believed to be the landing spot of ancient seafarers, contributing to Sri Lanka's rich maritime history. Local tales filled with myths of sailors, treasures, and the beach’s strategic importance in ancient times create an enchanting narrative that adds a layer of mystique to one's visit, making a stroll along Besama Beach not just a walk but a journey through time.
