Discover the Magic of Pasikudah – Ovelga Tours’ Premier Beach Escape

Unwind, explore, and fall in love with Sri Lanka’s hidden eastern coastal gem: Pasikudah. Nestled along a breathtaking crescent of shallow turquoise waters and powder-soft golden sands, this idyllic destination is the perfect blend of serenity, culture, and adventure—carefully curated by Ovelga Tours.

Why Choose Pasikudah for Your Next Getaway?

Pasikudah, a charming coastal resort located around 35 km northwest of Batticaloa, has transformed from a small Tamil village into one of Sri Lanka’s fastest-growing tourist destinations, particularly following post-tsunami rebuilding and the end of the civil war in 2009. Renowned for having one of the world’s longest stretches of shallow reef coastline—where visitors can walk for kilometers into the calm Indian Ocean—Pasikudah offers safe, family-friendly swimming and effortless snorkeling.
