Kayaking The Wannamaduwa Reservoir

Opt for either a sunrise or sunset kayaking experience on the pristine Wannamaduwa Reservoir, where every stroke of your paddle will create ripples on the water’s mirror-like surface.

Discover secret waterways with our expert guides who will reveal the secrets of these still waters, where kingfishers dive with flashes of azure, monitor lizards bask in the sun on the rocks, and ancient trees rise knee-deep in the clear waters. Soak in the peaceful silence, punctuated by the sweet sounds of birds singing and the rhythmic thumping of your paddle, breaking the water’s calm surface.

This reflective experience will allow you to tap into the timeless relationship between water and life in the island’s arid zone, where every reservoir is a lifeline for both communities and wildlife.
