Beach party?

See, nothing happening!

Visitors expecting 24 hour beach parties, lively bars, and wild full moon raves will be seriously disappointed. Thailand this ain't! The expected rise in younger tourists and backpackers will no doubt liven things up a bit but Unawatuna is a sleepy fishing village and the beach area is only mildly more awake. When the sun goes down things get very quiet - there are still plenty of bars and restaurants open (some even turn the music up!) but by midnight most have closed. There are a couple of places to hang out till the early hours but it's just like being in a normal bar rather than a party. If you want wild nightlife I'm afraid you'll have to go to Thailand.
