Boating & Canoeing

Explore the largest freshwater lake in Sri Lanka for a relaxing sunset cruise or sightseeing by either a motorized boat or canoe. South Lake Resort borders the banks of the Koggala Lake dotted with 8 islands shrouded with lush mangroves. The most famous of the islands is ‘Madol Duva’ (means Mangrove Island in Sinhala), was the inspiration for the children’s novel by the acclaimed father of modern Sinhala literature Martin Wickramasinghe. A typical 2 to 3 hour trip could include visits to Madol Duwa, and the famed Cinnamon Island. Enjoy a cup of freshly brewed cinnamon tea while you watch a fascinating demonstration of its production. On the way back, experience the unique foot therapy at the Fish Spa. Contact the tour desk at South Lake Resorts for more information.
