Safari day:

On the Land:
if your thing is wildlife, you can head to Yala National Park on safari amongst the word’s highest
concentration of leopards, or enjoy the company of large herds of elephants at Udawalawe Reserve,
or visit the Turtle Conservation Area at Rekawa by night, to be enthralled as turtles arrive to lay their
eggs.

In the Air:
With a large proportion of over 100 species being indigenous, the Bandula Bird Sanctuary attracts
every enthusiast to this wetlands area, and many species can also be found wherever you look in Yala
and Udawalawe.

At Sea:
Blue Whales have become a key part of any trip to the island. Whale watching Sri Lanka style can be
organized with trips from Mirissa only 45 minutes away.  Or for chance sightings while Dolphin
watching Sri Lanka. Closer to home, get aboard our Fishing Boat (please ask us for details to hire the
boat) to try your hand alongside Mawella’s fishermen, dive off the boat to swim or snorkel, or just
observe the Blow Hole at Kudawella from the sea .

To See:
A short trip from us are the Mulkirigala Caves boasting a remarkable temple and monastery carved
out of a large and sheer rock formation in the surrounding forest. Also nearby, fans of Bawa’s
architecture should visit Ruhuna University and Claughton House. There’s the Dutch Fort at Matara to
Warm you up before a visit to Galle and its own UNESCO World Heritage Site at the fort. This area is also an oasis for some browsing and shopping in its' boutiques.
