Trade inland roads for salty sea breezes as you head east to Batticaloa, one of Sri Lanka’s most charming coastal gems. This sun-soaked day tour is all about beach relaxation and water-based adventure. From golden sands and shallow lagoons to colorful coral reefs and vibrant fishing culture, Batticaloa offers a tropical escape that’s equal parts serene and thrilling.
Whether you want to splash around in calm lagoon waters, try stand-up paddleboarding, or simply unwind with your toes in the sand, this day promises unforgettable coastal vibes and aquatic fun under the eastern sun.
Hop on a traditional boat or catamaran and explore the serene Batticaloa Lagoon, famous for its “singing fish.” Glide past mangroves, spot local birdlife, and see life along the water's edge, where fishermen cast nets and children wave from the shore.
