Heat is winning. I can carry a wrap. Where does it actually matter near Nilaveli?

Temple, kovil, mosque: cover shoulders and knees. Nilaveli street is mixed. Inside is not. Shawl in the bag. Hats off, shoes on the rack.

A cheap wrap saved us twice. Nobody cared on the beach. They cared at the door.

If you are tired, stay near the bus stand or town centre in Nilaveli and skip the extra viewpoint. Pull cash in Colombo, Kandy, or Galle first. Cards are a maybe, not a plan.
