In Spanish ‘Calido’ means warm. Hence, Calido Beach in the quaint hamlet of Kalutara in Sri Lanka, is true to its name as nothing but warm waters will welcome you to its golden shores.
Where is it?
It will take you about one and a half hour’s time to reach it from Colombo, the commercial capital of the country.
And Just Minutes From The Kalutara Bodhi
The Calido Beach lies serenely just four minutes away from the Kalutara Bodhi, which is undoubtedly the crowning glory of the city.
There’s Much to See!
Be there when the fishermen bring in the catch of the day, and give a hand! This spectacle, called “ma dal adinawa” in Sinhalese, requires the collective effort of many to haul the fishing net from the sea.
