Colombo Port City Beach

If you plan to visit by car or taxi, your first step should be to download the Port City app and reserve a visit to the Port City. Upon arrival, security guards at the entrance will conduct a scan before granting access. Motorbikes and three-wheelers are not permitted to enter. For those who wish to access the area on foot, you can either book an Uber or a PickMe four-wheel vehicle. This mode of transportation would cost approximately 200-250 rupees for a group of three. There are also unofficial vans available at the entrance that might request varying amounts (ranging from 250 to 500 rupees per person) and attempt to deceive you. These vans claim to take you to the beach. The same method can be used for the exit. The most recommended approach is to book a PickMe vehicle. When you need to leave, you can either walk or book another PickMe or Uber. Additionally, there is a small pedestrian entrance located in front of the Presidential Secretary building, which currently only provides access up to the bridge. It's expected that this entrance will soon be open to the public as it's currently being held due to safety concerns. The beach area itself is particularly stunning at sunset and offers a range of activities. Prices for activities vary from 2000 rupees and beyond. The food court offers a diverse selection of items, all of which are of good quality. The beach is suitable for swimming, and you'll also find several shower facilities available in the vicinity.

I have been visiting Lanka since 2005, and I always love the nutritious food, people who call themselves as relatives for example a Lankan calling Tamil person as “ Machaan”, which is brother in law. In 2005, when I visited for the first time, I was literally carrying my Indian passport wherever I went, I was stopped by police men but they have never harmed me nor even criticise like looking at me by using the torch light. They will look at the photo on the passport and look at my face. They simply say take care. I had a little bit of bad experience like when I used my camcorder and shot video at Galle. I was shooting right from Colombo on my way to Katargama ( கதிர்காமம்) and I was taken to the Inspector of Galle police station by a military man who thought I took video of the Naval base. After knowing that I was innocent the inspector let me go but took the MINI DV cassette. Wishing me best luck. In the past 17 years, I have visited LANKA for about 15 times, I have traveled the dark street and I have stayed for 30 days and above. People are good. Politicians destroyed the nation. The Sinhala people worship Lord MURUGAN sincerely than Tamil people.

Clean beach with great view of Colombo and calm water for swimming. Large water toys and kayaks etc for rent. Before 3:30 pm, entrance only by car or shuttle van. No trishaw/motos allowed, no walk ins. If you Uber/Pick me, you may need to download the Port City app and create a QR code for entry. Your driver may also not know where the entrance is, be prepared to help them find it. Security did not ask for QR code when arriving on the shuttle. Nice food selections - Sri Lankan , Indian, Western, Chinese, etc. But food is pricey by local standards. As of October 2023, shuttle is 200 LKR per adult round trip. Toilet 50 LKR - squat toilets, well maintained. Adult shower 500 LKR, child shower 300 LKR.

Be aware! There is an IN and OUT ride scam which is expensive. If you're using PickMe or Uber, be aware that Tuktuk and Bikes are not allowed to go to near the beach. And you can not walk to the beach. Security guards not allow it. Security guards force you get a rental vehicle parked in the car park. It cost me 900 rupees for IN and OUT (I had to take a van ride since it is the only vehicle parked there). It is true that they do not sell tickets for Beach visit. But they have their own way (indirect) way to informally charge you! You will be not given any bill for the IN and OUT ride.

A very nice couple of hours spent with the kids. Beach is free to use. Bathing / Swimming area is marked with an orange line. So use that area if you wanna take a dip. Use the shower rooms even before dipping in so that you can utilize the lockers in that also. Shower rooms are very clean. So its worth the price. Food court is also very nice. Pricy, but good food and drinks. Really wish this place will survive and keep up the quality of service!! I got registered via the app and registered our visit. But no one scanned it when we entered.

Currently we need to book our vehicle to get inside. There is an app in store with that app we need to book and it will generate a QR Code where we need to show in entrance. Still under construction some places. We can enjoy by playing golf. It's not an entire valley to play but not least can play up to 5 players. They have opened the beach for public as well as there are some restaurants we are familiar with. Most popular restaurants are kottu mee and big plate plus some Chinese restaurants.

We loved our experience at the PC Beach Promenade. Lots of fun for families. The water sports are amazing. We did a ride inside a bubble and it was memorable. Didn't have time to dine in but there's lots of food outlets. Need to post directions to the location from entrance to port city. We got lost several times before reaching the promenade. Make it easier please.

The beach offers many restaurants and boat rides. The restaurants are very expensive, I bought a drink for RS200 but the marked price was RS100 it is kind of a scam. The boat rides on the other hand are reasonable. There are single boat rides, duo boat rides and group boat rides, there is even a boat for RS5000 for coral sightseeing and can accommodate 8 people.

ඔව්

Beach is clean and have option to kayak and other activities. It lacks the place for shower and clean ourselves after enjoying beach. Tried some dishes in the food court and it’s not up to the best.

Roaring waves can touch your heart and melt all the shackles over the soul. Awesome place for sunset point and family picnic. It is a bit difficult to find veg food here. One need to carry it with if planing to have picnic on the beach.

Entry needs to be registered on their app. Surprisingly was not hot under the food court area during noon time. Clean beach
