Arisimale beach🇱🇰❤️
Arisimale Beach lies off the beaten track about 50 km North of Trincomalee in the town of Pulmude.
In Tamil, arisi means rice and malai means mountain. Thus this is the ‘Mountain of Rice’ in Tamil. The reason for the name is in the sand. This beach is made of extremely large particles of sand, the size of a rice seed.
This beach is deeply buried in the Sri Lankan history. Thapassu Balluka, the two merchants who received locks of hair from Buddha is said to have landed at Arisimale Beach where they travelled up to Tiriyaya to deposit it in a shrine.
Trincomalee is a port city on the northeast coast of Sri Lanka. Fort Frederick was built by the Portuguese in the 17th century. Within its grounds, the grand Koneswaram Temple stands on Swami Rock cliff, a popular vantage point for blue-whale watching. The holy complex contains ornate shrines and a massive statue of Shiva. Nearby Gokanna Temple has panoramic views over the city and the coastline.
trincomalee’s beaches are known as some of the most beautiful in Sri Lanka. soft sand lapped by clear water and a backdrop of crackly-leafed sugar palms. Each of Trincomalee’s beaches has its own charm. Uppavali, north of Trincomalee, is the most developed of the town’s beaches and backed by large resort hotels. Ten kilometres beyond Uppaveli is Nilaveli, a wide expanse of beach with a collection of low-slung hotels and guesthouses
