About

Olive is known as a clothing store serving the Bentota area, with garments displayed across the premises. First-time visitors should expect a compact retail space rather than a large department store, so browsing takes little time. The shop holds 5 photos of its interior and stock on its listing. Visitors rate Olive at 4.9 out of 5, a score drawn from 316 reviews that places it among the more reviewed clothing shops in the region.
Bentota sits on the coastal road between Colombo and Galle, so the shop fits easily into a journey along that stretch of the south-west coast. The south-west and west coasts are driest from December to March, which suits a shopping stop during those months, while the east coast is best from May to September. Sinhala and Tamil are the official languages, and English is widely used in administration and tourism, so visitors can usually manage in English. Blue whales and dolphins are seen off the south coast, and sea turtles nest on several beaches nearby.
