  • Galle Dutch Fort
    Founded in the 16th century by the Portuguese, Galle reached the height of its development in the 18th century, before the arrival of the British. It is the best example of a fortified city built by Europeans in South and South-East Asia, showing the interaction between European architectural styles and South Asian traditions.
  • Kosgoda Sea Turtle Conservation Project
    Turtle populations are attacked at all stages of their lives, both from natural and human pressures and all species of sea turtle are now classed as endangered. Without intervention, we may lose these beautiful, ancient creatures from our ocean’s forever.The natural life cycle of marine turtles is tough enough without the added pressure from humans, and it is no wonder their numbers are drastically declining.
  • Ariyapala Mask Museum
    This museum is designed to introduce into the richness of the mask tradition of Ambalangoda and to strengthen this cultural heritage. The museum, the workshop and the small library (containing all available anthropological literature on masks performances) may serve as a center for traditional arts and crafts and for research as well.
  • Stilt Fishermen Sri Lanka
    Stilt fishing in Koggala is a unique and iconic tradition found along Sri Lanka’s southern coast. Perched on wooden poles planted in the shallow reefs, fishermen patiently wait for their catch, creating a striking silhouette against the sunset. This centuries-old method, once a practical way to fish above turbulent waters, is now a fascinating cultural spectacle for visitors. While fewer fishermen practice it today, it remains a must-see attraction, offering incredible photo opportunities and a glimpse into Sri Lanka’s coastal heritage. A visit to Koggala’s stilt fishermen is a highlight for travelers exploring the Galle region.
