Väike rand suurepäraste surfitingimustega, rohkelt rohelust ning mõnusate söögikohtade ja ajaveetmiskohtadega. Hiriketiya on üks neist lõunaranniku vaiksetest randadest, mis pärast seljakotirändurite „avastamist“ ei ole enam nii vaikne. Kohalikud võivad kahetseda, et nad seda varem ei avastanud, kuid turism toob kaasa ka restoranid, hotellid ja tegevused peale ujumise.

Hiriketiya, tuntud ka kui Hiri, on hobuserauakujuline laht Sri Lanka lõunarannikul, umbes 1 tunni kaugusel Weligamast ida pool. Kui plaanid reisi mööda Sri Lanka lõunarannikut, on Hiriketiya kindlasti külastamist väärt. Selle rahulikku atmosfääri on raske ületada, nii et kui otsid pingevaba eluviisi, suundu otse Hiriketiya randa Sri Lankal.
