Surfing Paradise In Sri Lanka



Sri Lanka Surf Tours are the pioneers of surf tours in Sri Lanka established way back in the early 80's. Founded by Kithsiri Panditha (most surfers call him “Siri” ) who has over 25 years surfing experience and his services are very popular amongst the Japanese, Australian and surfers alike, who were in Hikkaduwa from time to time since early 80s . He is also a government approved tour guide.
Based in Hikkaduwa, the well known surf destination on Sri Lanka's West Coast, Kithsiri offers quality training for individuals and groups, specialized surf accommodation at his own Surf Villa as well as organized tours to the major (and not so well known) surf points of the West-, South- and East Coast
But this is not all. The integrated surf shop offers board hire and sale as well as surf wear and all the bits and pieces you'll need to tackle some of the finest waves of the Indian Ocean.

Pigeon Island In Sri Lanka

PIGEON ISLAND NATIONAL PARK IN TRINCOMALEE

Pigeon Island National Park is one of the two marine national parks of Sri Lanka. The national park is situated 1 km off the coast of Nilaveli, a coastal town in Eastern Province. The island's name derives from the Rock Pigeon which has colonized it. The national park contains some of the best remaining coral reefs of Sri Lanka. Pigeon Island was designated as a sanctuary in 1963. In 2003 it was redesignated as a national park. This national park is the 17th in Sri Lanka. The island was used as a shooting range during the colonial era. Pigeon Island is one of the several protected areas affected by the Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004.
