Best Things To Do In Bentota
Visit the Turtle Hatchery
- A visit to the turtle hatchery should be on every traveler’s list. It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Seeing a turtle hatch and swim for the first time is an unforgettable sight. The turtle hatchery or turtle farm is an organization that is dedicated to the survival of sea turtles. At this sanctuary, the staff patrols the beaches at night when the mother turtle comes to lay eggs. These eggs are then safely collected and rescued so that they hatch without danger from predators and poachers. The baby turtles are kept for a short period of time before being released into the sea.
Madu Ganga River Safari
- Located in Balapitiya, the river safari is an excellent way to experience the natural beauty of Sri Lanka. The relaxed ride takes you through the mangroves on a motor powered boat. The Maduganga wetlands is considered to be one of the last remaining tracts of mangrove forests. It is an ideal place to observe prawn farming and traditional fishing methods.
During this ride, you will make a stop at the cinnamon island. You can disembark from the boat and your driver will take you to a spot where cinnamon is made. It’s fascinating to observe the entire process and you can even purchase the best cinnamon oil from there.
