Salt House is a cool kid! Salt House likes to chill with friends, Surf, Swim, and enjoys long walks on the beach at sun set.
On the far southern coastline of Sri Lanka, Hiriketiya is 1km from the main rd town of Dickwella. Hiriketiya Beach is one of Sri Lankas last discovered beaches. Know by locals as Blue Beach, this is paradise.
