Morning – Kalutara & Kosgoda:

Begin your coastal journey with a visit to the Kalutara Bodhiya and the unique Hollow Dagoba, a Buddhist temple known for its immense white stupa you can actually walk inside. Continue to the Turtle Hatchery in Kosgoda, where conservation efforts help protect and rehabilitate sea turtles—get up close with these gentle marine creatures and learn about their journey from sand to sea.

Midday – Ambalangoda & Galle Fort:

Stop at the famed Mask Museum in Ambalangoda to uncover the rich folklore and craftsmanship behind Sri Lanka’s traditional devil masks. Then, explore the iconic Dutch Fort of Galle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where colonial charm blends with local culture. Stroll along the ramparts, visit quaint shops, and admire the architecture that tells stories of centuries past.

Afternoon – Unawatuna & Weligama:

Relax at Unawatuna Beach, a stunning crescent-shaped bay ideal for swimming or simply soaking up the coastal vibe. Wrap up your expedition with a stop at Weligama to witness the iconic stilt fishermen in action—an age-old tradition that reflects the deep connection between the people and the sea.
