In 2006, Mount Lavinia Beach provided an idyllic setting for Sri Lanka's National Festival of Kites. Around 180 participants took part, with competitions for both children and adults. First prize for the creative category was awarded to B G Ratnasri who used palm leaves and bird feathers to make an owl kite.
