Highlights

Kalpitiya is perfect for dolphin and whale watching, as you do not have to head out too deep into the Ocean: the continental shelf is much closer than reported in admiralty charts, so much so, the shelf actually runs near and alongside the shoreline. This translates into being able to see many species of marine life - in just a short boat ride away from the shore. You will be led by trained English-speaking guides, who will brief you on everything you wish to know about the dolphins/whales you encounter. Watching dolphins leap, swimming alongside you and under your boat - is truly an unforgettable experience. The sea will not be as rough during this period as it is during the monsoon season and it will be easier to spot dolphins given good visibility.
