Enjoy the sunset and nature from a catamaran in Kandalama Lake

Discover the serene beauty of Mawella Lagoon, the largest lagoon in the Hambantota District, on this relaxing floating lounge experience with CCT Sri Lanka. Just 10 minutes from Amanwella, this peaceful cruise combines luxury, wildlife, and tranquil lagoon scenery in one unforgettable escape.

Once heavily covered with lotus plants and now beautifully restored, Mawella Lagoon offers calm, mirror-like waters surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and rich birdlife. As you gently drift through the lagoon aboard an elegant floating lounge, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere while spotting pelicans, kingfishers, and other fascinating water birds.

Choose between a magical sunrise cruise or a breathtaking sunset experience, where large colonies of fruit bats begin their evening flight across the sky. Relax with refreshments onboard while soaking in one of southern Sri Lanka’s hidden natural treasures.

Travel comfortably and safely with CCT Sri Lanka’s Tourism Board–registered guides and drivers, ensuring a seamless and memorable experience from beginning to end.
