If being by the water is a major draw, Arugam Bay Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 1 mi (1.6 km) from central Arugam Bay. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Pottuvil Point and Pasarichenai Beach.
If a restful holiday is part of your travel plans, Pottuvil Point might be the perfect place to visit during your trip to Pottuvil. Make some time to visit the monuments while you're in the area.

Uga Jungle Beach - Trincomalee
10/10 Excellent
"Very nice little boutique hotel. Our room was 30 seconds from the beach which was long and deserted. The room was spacious and comfortable, the hotel clean and well set out with good amenities and super friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble and they reacted to requests immediately. Highly recommended for people looking to relax and just chill out. "
"Friendly staff with overzealous security. The hotel security is keen to keep the other visitors away but can’t talk in English which led to our child being harassed as he couldn’t speak the local language. Complained to the duty manager who was very apologetic. Security staff need more training so that they don’t harass the hotel guests. Feel that management needs to take responsibility for this situation as staff are simply following instructions. "
"Loved the stay! They have upgraded us without an additional fee. All the staff are friendly and helpful. They clean the room twice a day (replenish and tidying). Very helpful when I lost my phone. Highly recommended "
"My stay at the Jetwing hotel in Pottuvil was nothing short of amazing. The individual cabana experience offered the perfect blend of privacy and comfort, surrounded by nature and just steps away from the most beautiful beach. Waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying my peaceful morning walk along the shoreline became the highlight of my trip.
A special thank you to R. Darshika, Jehan, and Sadun, whose exceptional service made the experience even more memorable. Their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail truly stood out and added a personal touch to my stay.
The atmosphere was tranquil, the service was outstanding, and the entire property felt like a hidden getaway designed for true relaxation. I can’t wait to come back and explore more of what this incredible place has to offer. Highly recommended!"
