“Cold beer. Fun place. Good food. The avocado prawn salad is boss. Beach views are fantastic.”

Wewala Beach · Hikkaduwa · Sri Lanka
Fresh seafood, Sri Lankan flavours, cold drinks and sunset tables by Hikkaduwa beach.
From the kitchen
Fresh seafood, Sri Lankan favourites and comforting plates made for long lunches, sandy feet and evenings by the sea.

Sand beneath your feet.
Ocean in front of you.
Our story
Main Reef is tucked right on the sand at Wewala Beach. We've been serving cold drinks, hot curries, and fresh seafood on the coast, watched over by the rhythm of the Indian Ocean.
Whether you're paddling out at dawn, taking a lazy lunch in the shade, or settling in for a candlelit dinner with live music, you'll find a warm welcome and a spot to call your own.
Grab a table on the sand, order a cold drink, and watch the sunset paint the Indian Ocean orange.
The Main Reef way
Beyond the table
Hikkaduwa is where the reef meets the shore. Surf at dawn, explore the reef, slow down for lunch and stay until the sky changes colour.
Guest love
From beachside breakfasts to sunset dinners, our guests keep coming back for the food, the view and the easygoing Main Reef atmosphere.
