Embark on a tranquil Lagoon Canoeing experience from Galle, where you can explore the serene beauty of Sri Lanka's coastal ecosystem. Your journey begins with a pick-up from the tour operator's house, where you'll be provided with bottled water and life jackets. After a brief introduction, you'll be transported by Tuk Tuk to the floating dock, where your canoe adventure begins.
Choose from a canoe with a seating capacity of 2 or 3 people, and set off on a peaceful exploration of the hidden corners of the lagoon. Accompanied by an experienced guide, you will navigate through winding waterways and observe the rich diversity of flora and fauna that thrive in this coastal environment. The lagoon's lush mangrove forests, teeming with life, offer a perfect backdrop for birdwatching and taking in the natural beauty surrounding you.
During the tour, your guide will share insights into the unique coastal ecosystem, explaining how various species interact and depend on each other. Refreshments are provided to keep you refreshed as you paddle along, allowing you to take in the serene surroundings.
The entire paddling experience lasts for approximately 2 hours, though the time can vary based on weather conditions and the pace of the group.
