Jaffna white beach known as Mankumban is a Muslim village situated about 10 kilometres from the Jaffna town. The Muslims in Jaffna town are the owners of most of the lands in the beach here. The Jaffna town Muslims were using this beach village as a resort and visited this place often during their leisure hours spending their time with families and friends where there are two mosques. After the LTTE forcibly evicted the Muslims of Jaffna in 1990, this beach village became deserted and the Sri Lankan security forces used one of the mosques as camp. This village and the mosques are becoming active once again with the resettlement of Muslims in Jaffna.
