Hiking

Barricane is a picturesque cove nestled between the rocks. It’s famous for cowries and other exotic sea shells. Local folklore says that these shells have travelled off the shore of a Caribbean island thousands of miles across the Atlantic to be dropped in near-perfect condition. There are some fantastic rock pools to explore and it’s a popular surf spot.

If your there in the summer be sure to try best Sri Lankan Curry ever. You will have to check when it's on as not advertised. Perfect after your walk to sit and watch the sunset. Check the tide tho or you may end up running up the beach with your plate!
