The Full Experience
Catch a glimpse of some of the ocean's most majestic inhabitants in their natural habitat on an exciting whale watching trip.
During peak season, sightings of large groups of whales are commonplace, and with the help of a small yet powerful boat to venture across the ocean swiftly and before other watchers, this experience provides an excellent opportunity for viewings. Marine life such as sperm and blue whales, false orcas, spinner and bottlenose dolphins and turtles thrive in the Indian Ocean waters of Sri Lanka due to the depth of waters just beyond the shoreline. Remarkably close to land lies the continental shelf, which allows larger creatures the space to prosper whilst feeding off nutrients that flow from shore.
